Zucchini and Prosciutto Egg Muffins
Zucchini and Prosciutto Egg Muffins are mini frittatas baked in a muffin tin lined with prosciutto slices. The egg mixture includes sautéed onion, garlic, bell pepper, spinach, parsley, coconut milk, and thinly sliced zucchini, seasoned with salt and pepper. Baking these creates individual, savory muffins with a balance of tender vegetables, silky eggs, and salty prosciutto wrapping. They make convenient, portioned servings suitable for breakfast or snacks.
