Serves
12 egg muffins

Ingredients

  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 cup spinach, finely diced
  • ½ medium yellow onion, finely diced
  • 4 large basil leaves, finely diced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 8 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk, any kind
  • ⅓ cup feta cheese crumbles

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Finely dice the sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, basil and yellow onion, then divide them among the 12 cups. Add about 1 teaspoon of feta to each cup.

  3. 3

    Whisk the eggs and milk together in a medium bowl. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Stir lightly so the vegetables are distributed through the egg.

  4. 4

    Season the tops with salt and pepper, then bake for about 18–22 minutes, until the egg muffins are set.
