Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup bell pepper, finely diced (any color)

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Olive oil spray or muffin liners (for greasing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). If using muffin liners, place them in a 12-cup muffin tin. For a non-liner method, lightly spray each cup with olive oil to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a mixing bowl, add the chopped spinach, diced cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, and diced bell pepper. Gently toss the vegetables together until they are well mixed.

      Whisk the Eggs: In a separate large bowl, crack all 6 eggs and whisk them vigorously until you achieve a uniform mixture. Season the eggs with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, and continue whisking until everything is well combined.

        Combine Ingredients: Add the prepared vegetable mixture and crumbled feta cheese to the large bowl of whisked eggs. Carefully fold the ingredients together with a spatula, ensuring that the vegetables and feta are evenly coated with the egg mixture.

          Fill the Muffin Tin: Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour the egg and vegetable mixture into each muffin cup, filling each about 3/4 full. This allows adequate room for the muffins to rise while baking.

            Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes. The muffins are ready when they are puffed up, golden around the edges, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

              Cool & Serve: Once baked, carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. If needed, use a small knife to gently loosen the edges of the muffins from the tin. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

                Enjoy: These Savory Spinach Feta Egg Muffin Cups can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. For storage, keep them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and simply reheat in the microwave when ready to enjoy.
