Power Greens Breakfast Egg Bites

By Camille Styles


Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup onion, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, chopped
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups dark leafy greens (kale, chard, spinach), chopped
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (or nut milk or oat milk)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 3/4 cup goat cheese, crumbled

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Generously grease a muffin tin or place silicone muffin liners in tin.
  2. Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then sauté onions and mushrooms until translucent, about 10 minutes.
  3. Add the minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, remaining salt and pepper, and power greens. Whisk in onion mixture.
  5. Divide evenly among muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 of the way.
  6. Add goat cheese to the top of each egg muffin, pressing down a bit, so that the cheese sits in the egg instead of on top.
  7. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until fully cooked and golden on the edges.

*Egg bites keep up to 5 days in the fridge - just rewarm gently in the oven or at half power in the microwave.
