Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • ½ yellow onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ zucchini shredded
  • 1 red bell pepper chopped
  • 10 large eggs
  • 2 Tbsp milk
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup arugula roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
  • Heat a small skillet over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil. Cook the onion and bell pepper for 3 to 4 minutes, until softened. Add garlic and cook another 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
  • Shred the zucchini and squeeze as much moisture as possible using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. This helps prevent watery egg muffins.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Stir in the cooked veggie mixture, shredded zucchini and arugula.
  • Evenly divide the mixture between 12 muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the centers are set and the tops are lightly golden. Cool slightly before removing from the pan.
