# How to Make It:

02 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add red onion and bell pepper; sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened. Stir in spinach and cook for 1 minute until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
03 - In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and Italian herbs until well combined.
04 - Fold in cheddar cheese, Parmesan, sautéed vegetables, and cherry tomatoes.
05 - Divide the egg mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
06 - Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the muffins are puffed and set in the center.
07 - Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.
# Tips for Success:
01 -
- They reheat beautifully so your weekday breakfast feels like a treat instead of an afterthought
- The vegetables actually stay tender and flavorful instead of turning into mushy surprises
- You can customize them with whatever is wilting in your crisper drawer right now
02 -
- Overfilling the muffin cups will make them stick and create a mess so stick to the 3/4 full mark
- Letting the vegetables cool slightly before mixing them prevents the eggs from cooking prematurely
- They will deflate slightly as they cool which is completely normal and does not affect the texture
03 -
- Use a silicone muffin tin or paper liners for the easiest removal ever
- Let them cool completely before freezing otherwise you will end up with soggy muffins from ice crystals forming inside
