Ingredients
6 large eggs
1/2 cup spinach, cooked, chopped and squeezed dry
1/3 cup turkey bacon, crumbled and pre-cooked
1/3 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Coat 6 cups of a standard muffin tin with cooking spray or insert paper liners.
Crack the 6 large eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk vigorously until smooth and aerated.
Stir in the prepared spinach, crumbled turkey bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Divide the mixture evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters of the way.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the eggs are set and slightly golden on top.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds. Ensure the spinach is squeezed very dry to prevent the muffins from becoming watery.
