Protein Power: Cheesy Broccoli Egg Breakfast Muffins


Good Morning to all my CISN listeners! 

Thank you so much for tuning in, and thank you for trying out my recipes! I am so excited to share these great protein-packed recipes so you can start adding some protein into that daily grind of yours. 

These Spinach + Feta Breakfast Muffins are so fantastic for a few reasons: 
- packed with veggies which are full of fibre (keeps you feeling full and helps with digestion)
- a great, lean source of protein
- super quick and easy to make
- so versatile! The ones I've made here today for you are broccoli and feta but you can throw in whichever veggies/meats you've got in the fridge. 

This recipe is perfect for those who feel like they're always 
on the go; this recipes easily doubles and muffins can be packaged up in baggies or ziploc containers in the fridge so there is a quick and easy healthy breakfast option to grab on the go. 

Trust me when I say we all live busy lives - at the end of the day, if we want to feel great, look great and live a long, healthy life, I've truly learned that we just simply need to find the time for little things like p
reparing a nutritious breakfast. With this simple protein-packed recipe, you will have no excuse to be missing those proteins any longer! ;) 

Ingredients
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/4 bell pepper, diced
1 1/2 cups broccoli, chopped
3 tbsp green onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups egg whites 
2 whole eggs
Frank's Red Hot sauce
3 tbsp crumbled feta

Preheat oven to 350 F and lightly "grease" a muffin tin with extra virgin olive oil or use a silicon muffin  mold (no greasing needed). 

Chop 
all veggies into small pieces and add to bowl. In small bowl, add egg whites, eggs + Frank’s and beat well. Add egg mixture to veggies and mix.


Divide egg mixture evenly among muffin tin and sprinkle with feta. Cook for about 15 mins at 350 F. Once almost completely cooked, flip oven to broil setting for 3-5 mins until browned and fully cooked. 

Pack in baggies or ziploc containers to store in fridge for up to 3 days - 4 mini frittatas is 1 serving :) 
If you do give these a shot, I would LOVE to see how they turn out so be sure to tag me in your pictures! 
As always, let's end things off with a little inspiration:
