Easy Healthy Egg Muffin Bakes!
Sometimes MY breakfast is the last thing on my mind in the morning. I'm busy with kids lunches, breakfasts, and getting out the door, and that means that sometimes my breakfast is forgotten. This is a great way to get some protein and veg in for those rushed mornings! And it's SUPER EASY!
Easy, quick, healthy and protein. A few of my essentials for breakfast.
Did I mention they were easy?
Ingredients:
-11 eggs
-2 tablespoons milk
-1/4 cup bell pepper diced
-1/4 cup zucchini, diced
-1/4 cup mushrooms, diced
-1-2 tablespoon chopped onion
-1 cup grated cheese
-1/2 teaspoon salt
-pepper to taste
- Preheat oven to 375F and grease a 12 cup muffin pan. (or use a non stick spray or muffin liners. And go heavy on the spray, oil or butter. These guys like to stick!)
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs. Add the remaining ingredients and mix together.
- Pour into muffin cups and garnish with a little extra cheese (if desired).
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- Let cool before taking out of the muffin pan.
You can use anything for the mixture - ham, spinach, tomatoes, bacon, feta. You could even add some cooked quinoa for some extra protein. Use what you have in your fridge and change it up!
After they have cooled, place in a bag and keep in the freezer for a quick meal or snack!
These are so easy and quick and you've just set yourself up for some easy breakfasts or healthy snacks.
