#AtoZChallenge2016 Day 2 – Breakfast Egg Muffins

by Tina Basu
Breakfasts are important. Period. It in fact should be the most important meal of the day.  Actually we all know it yet we tend to skip it. I too did that sometimes because I was running late for work. Sometimes I just munched on some biscuits or a granola bar on way to work. But believe me it doesn’t do any good to the body.

Now it’s an even bigger challenge to make time for breakfast with a hyper active infant, domestic work and professional work. But even if it’s little late I try to have a good breakfast. Now making a quick breakfast food interesting is an art in itself! I have been making some interesting stuffs for breakfast lately which is yum, quick yet healthy. It involves very less time and effort. Let’s get going with our Breakfast Egg Muffins.


HEALTH BENEFIT

This is a low carb high protein recipe.

Eggs are full of good proteins and minerals.

Rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids, A,B,D,E and K vitamins

There’s hardly any oil in the recipe since it’s baked and not fried like an omelet.

Recipe Type: Breakfast
Serves: 6 muffins
INGREDIENTS
  • Whole Eggs – 4
  • Red Onion -¼ cup chopped
  • Tomato – ¼ cup chopped
  • Bell Peppers – ¼ cup chopped (Any color of your choice)
  • Baby Spinach – handful washed and chopped
  • Salt & Pepper – to taste
  • Oil – for greasing muffin tray

INSTRUCTIONS
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 390°F.
  • Break the eggs in a mixing bowl
  • Add the chopped veggies
  • Add seasoning and mix well
  • Grease the muffin tray with oil/cooking spray.
  • Pour the egg mixture in the muffin slots and pop them in the oven
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or till the tops are firm to touch.
  • Serve with ketchup or just like that and enjoy a good breakfast.

TIPS
  • If you are greasing with a pastry brush, it will take very little oil
  • You can add muffin/cupcake paper liners to avoid any stickiness
  • If you want to go ahead and make it even meatier – add some shredded roasted chicken in the mix. Any leftover white meat is okay to add some dollops of taste and health. Avoid processed bacon/sausage etc.


Enjoy a good healthy snack.



Until next time, Cheers!

I usually prefer boiled eggs for breakfast, but this surely adds variety to it now 🙂

Easy and yummy. As someone who follows (somewhat) the old Weight Watchers Point Plus system, the only change I would make is to use egg whites only – and add a sprinkling of low fat cheese – because I love cheese so much.

Breakfast is indeed a very important meal. A good breakfast fuels you up and gets you ready for the day. Without breakfast, I can get irritable, restless, and tired. So I always make time for breakfast. From baking to scrambling to poaching, there are infinite ways to transform the humble egg.Egg Muffins, What a brilliant idea! What a nice change from 'normal' eggs.

You could definitely add cheese. Just egg white will make the muffin white!
