Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 0.5 cups milk
• 0.75 cups cheddar cheese
• 1 cups spinach
• 0.5 cups red bell pepper
• 0.5 cups cooked bacon or sausage
• 0.25 cups green onions
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoons olive oil or cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 3

Chop the spinach, bell pepper, and green onions into small pieces. If using bacon or sausage, ensure they are fully cooked and crumbled or diced.

Step 4

Distribute the chopped spinach, bell pepper, cooked bacon or sausage, and green onions evenly into the greased muffin cups. Each cup should be about halfway full.

Step 5

Add a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese to each cup on top of the vegetables and protein.

Step 6

Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them almost to the top but leaving a small gap to allow for expansion during baking.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the quiches are puffed up and golden on top. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the quiches cool for 5 minutes. Use a knife to gently loosen the edges, then carefully lift them out of the tin.

Step 9

Serve warm or let the quiches cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for a quick on-the-go breakfast.
