Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs beaten
  • 2 tbsp milk or water optional
  • 1 1/2 C refrigerated or frozen potato hash shreds
  • 1 C spinach chopped
  • 1 whole red bell pepper diced (~1 C)
  • 1/4 of a medium yellow onion diced (~1/4 C)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 12 tsp shredded cheddar cheese 1 tsp per muffin cup
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spray a muffin tin generously with cooking oil. Make sure the sides are well covered to decrease the chance of them sticking.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk until smooth and uniform. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Chop the onions, bell pepper, and spinach. Add the potato shreds and fold them into the whisked egg mixture.
  • Portion the vegetable-egg mixture into the 12 cups, with approximately 2 oz in each well, filling the wells ¾ of the way. Top each well with 1 tsp of shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Serve with your favorite hot sauce and enjoy!

Notes

These egg cups are extremely versatile. See a vegetable you are not a fan of? Swap them out for a flavor profile you enjoy. These can be prepared ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, place your desired amount of egg cups on a microwave-safe plate. Reheat gently in the microwave until warmed through, about 30 seconds (if thawed) and 1-2 minutes (if frozen). Increase the reheating time by 30 seconds for each additional cup on the plate.
