1. The Perfect 50-Calorie Egg Muffins Recipe
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Generously grease a standard non-stick 12-slot muffin tin with cooking spray, and set aside.
Step 2: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add in the olive oil, red pepper, green pepper, and yellow onion. Cook this for 5-7 minutes or until the peppers are tender, stirring frequently.
Step 3: Stir in the spinach and mushrooms, and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Now, it’s time to add in the minced garlic. Let this cook for another 30 seconds. Season with salt, then remove the skillet from heat.
Step 4: Crack the eggs and egg whites into a large 4 cup measuring cup. Whisk together until smooth. Now stir in the cooked vegetables.
Step 5: Pour the egg and vegetable mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Pop this in the oven and bake for 15-30 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the tops are firm to the touch, and the eggs are cooked.
Step 6: Let it cool for a while, and then serve!
These egg muffins are great served hot out of the oven, but they can also be enjoyed at room temperature. They make for a fantastic on-the-go breakfast or can be a part of a healthy brunch. Drizzle with hot sauce if you like an extra kick!
