Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease your muffin tins {enough for 16-18 muffins} and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl crack the eggs and whisk them together. Set aside.

  3. 3

    In a large skillet heat 2 Tablespoons olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, paprika, cumin, chili powder and cayenne pepper and sauté for 6-7 minutes, until the onion is soft.

  4. 4

    Add the cooked vegetables to the eggs along with the chopped spinach and the 1 cup of cheese. Mix to combine and add a dash of salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Pour the egg mixture into the muffin tins {about 3/4 of the way full} and sprinkle each muffin with a small amount of the 1/2 cup of leftover cheese.

  6. 6

    Put the egg muffins in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the egg muffins are set in the middle and begin to turn golden brown.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven and let cool before removing from the muffin tin.

  8. 8

    Serve with a dollop of sour cream, salsa or topping of your choice.

  9. 9

    Refrigerate remaining egg muffins in an airtight container.

Notes

If you want to freeze these wrap them in plastic wrap individually and then put them in a large Ziplock bag. Remove from the freezer when you are ready to eat them and heat them in the microwave for two minutes or until warm.
