I have suggested this recipe to dozens of people, and many of them make these quick breakfast treats regularly! You can use whatever fillings you’d like to keep it interesting. For inspiration, think about what fillings you would enjoy in an omelet. For the healthiest egg muffins, emphasize the veggies, but avoid processed meats (bacon, sausage, ham, etc.) and keep cheese to a minimum, if you use it at all.
Veggie filling ideas:
- Mushrooms (sauteed) + spinach/chard (sauteed)
- Broccoli (lightly cooked, or thawed from frozen) + raw tomato (halved cherry/grape tomatoes)
- Butternut squash (cooked) + sage
- Bell peppers (raw or cooked) + onion (raw or cooked)
- Leftover grilled vegetables, chopped
- Pizza = marinara/pizza sauce + favorite pizza toppings (mushrooms, spinach, bell peppers)
