Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup leafy greens like kale or spinach
  • 1 cup chopped veggies like tomato or bell pepper
  • 1 cup cheese like shredded mozzarella, cheddar, goat cheese, or feta
  • ¼ cup fresh herbs (optional) like basil or curly parsley
  • To serve: a sprinkle of salt and pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray a 12-cup capacity muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Whisk: Whisk eggs together until very smooth.
  3. Assemble: Choose your desired add-ins (flavor combination ideas below!). Divide all add-ins evenly into your muffin tin. Pour whisked egg into each tin so that they're each about ¾ full.
  4. Bake: Transfer to the oven and cook for about 15 minutes, or until egg is set.
  5. Store: Remove from tin and serve immediately or store (up to 5 days in the fridge, or 1 month in the freezer).

Notes

  • Mean Green Egg Cups: kale, green bell pepper, and goat cheese
  • Mediterranean: spinach, tomatoes, and mozzarella
  • Cheesy Broc: no leafy greens: just broccoli, and cheddar
  • Store: Eat warm, and then let the remaining egg cups cool down before storing them in an airtight container. You can either keep them all in one large container or set up individual portions for breakfast (or lunch!) on the go. These can safely be stored for the entire workweek.
  • Reheating: You can pop these in the microwave or air fryer to reheat. They are also tasty cold!
