Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 6 large large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped Can be substituted with frozen spinach if needed.
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled Provides salty tang.

Optional Add-ins
  • to taste diced onions, bell peppers, or tomatoes Ensure they are finely diced for even cooking.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin well to ensure the muffins release easily.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until evenly blended and slightly foamy.
  3. Fold in the chopped spinach and crumbled feta gently to distribute evenly.
  4. If using, stir in a small handful of diced onions, bell peppers, or tomatoes.
  5. Pour the mixture evenly into the greased muffin tin cups, keeping the spinach and feta fairly evenly divided.
Baking
  1. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the muffins are set in the center and slightly golden on top.
  2. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before removing them to avoid tearing.
Serving
  1. Serve warm or allow to cool and refrigerate for meal prep.

Notes

Store cooled muffins in the refrigerator for easy meals. Reheat until heated through for best results.
