Ingredients
  

  • Cooking oil spray for the muffin tin
  • ¾ to 1 cup finely chopped vegetables such as bell peppers, spinach, tomatoes, zucchini, or mushrooms
  • ¼ cup 56 grams of crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
  • 4 large eggs about 50 grams each, weighed without shell
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ to ¼ teaspoon of black pepper adjusted according to your taste preferences
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs dill, parsley, basil, or thyme

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Oven: Set your oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) to warm it up. Lightly spray a 6-cup muffin tin with cooking oil to prevent sticking.
  • Prepare the Vegetables: Finely chop your choice of vegetables. Make sure to pat them dry with a paper towel if they are particularly moist, such as tomatoes or mushrooms. This helps prevent excess moisture in the muffins.
  • Mix the Egg Mixture: In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until well combined. Add the salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh herbs, and mix well.
  • Assemble the Muffins: Evenly distribute the chopped vegetables among the muffin cups. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and chopped green onion over the vegetables in each cup.
  • Pour the Eggs: Carefully pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cheese in each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ of the way full. The muffins will puff up as they bake.
  • Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tops are lightly golden.
  • Cool and Serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes. Use a small spatula or knife to loosen the edges and carefully remove the muffins from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.
