  • 1 cup spinach chopped
  • 2 Roma tomatoes chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped optional
  • Salt to season as per taste
  • Freshly ground pepper to season as per taste
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or butter
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shreds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Grease your muffin pans with a tbsp of oil or butter and set aside.
  3. Take a pan and heat 1 tbsp of oil/butter for a few seconds before adding the onions to saute.

  4. Saute the onions for about 3 minutes, till the onions become translucent or slightly golden brown.

  5. Add the tomatoes and spinach. Saute for another minute. Once done, switch off the stove and set the pan aside.
  6. In a bowl, crack open all 6 eggs and whip as if scrambling the eggs. Season this mixture with salt and pepper.
  7. Add to this mixture the sauteed veggies and cilantro.
  8. Now take your muffin pan and fill each muffin cup with the egg mixture upto 3/4ths of the way.

  9. Bake for about 15-20 minutes. Test if the egg muffin is done, with a fork or toothpick. If the fork or toothpick comes out dry then it's ready. If not, allow the muffins to bake for a few more minutes.

  10. Once you take the muffins out, allow the muffins to cool a bit before topping the same with the cheese shreds.
  11. Enjoy!
