Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 6 egg whites
- Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetables & Cheese
- 1/2 cup spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1/4 cup onions, diced
- 1/4 cup feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin to prevent the muffins from sticking.
- Whisk Egg Whites: In a mixing bowl, whisk the 6 egg whites until they become frothy. Add salt and pepper to season according to your taste.
- Add Veggies & Cheese: Gently fold in the chopped spinach, diced bell peppers, diced onions, and feta cheese if you are using it. Make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Pour the egg white mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup halfway to allow room for the muffins to rise slightly while baking.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully set and the tops turn lightly golden.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or tomatoes for variety.
- Using a non-stick spray or muffin liners can make removal easier.
- You can prepare these muffins ahead and refrigerate or freeze for meal prep.
- Adjust seasoning and cheese amount to your preference.
