Ingredients (Makes 12 muffins, Serves 6)

  • 6 large eggs

  • ¼ cup (60g) crumbled goat cheese (or vegan feta)

  • 2 tablespoons (30g) chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained)

  • 2 tablespoons (20g) sliced kalamata olives

  • ¼ cup (25g) chopped baby spinach

  • ¼ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano (optional)

  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

  • 1 tablespoon milk (dairy or non-dairy, optional for fluffier eggs)

  • Olive oil or cooking spray (for greasing the muffin tin)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    • Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray.

  2. Prepare the Egg Mixture

    • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder, and milk (if using).

    • Stir in the chopped spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, kalamata olives, and crumbled goat cheese.

  3. Fill the Muffin Tin

    • Evenly divide the egg mixture among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.

  4. Bake the Egg Muffins

    • Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the eggs are set and slightly golden on top.

    • A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.

  5. Cool & Serve

    • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the tin.

    • Serve warm, or let them cool completely for easy storage.

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

  • Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds.

  • Freeze: Place cooled muffins in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat before serving.

Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with fresh avocado, Greek yogurt, or a slice of whole-grain toast.

  • Enjoy as a protein-packed snack or breakfast on the go!
