Make these in bulk on a weekend and store in the freezer for easy grab-n-go breakfasts during the week.

Serves: 12

Ingredients

  • 12 eggs from pasture raised, local chickens

  • 1 teaspoon of unrefined sea salt

  • pinch of cayenne

  • Extra virgin coconut oil

  • 2 cups any variety of mixed vegetables (such as):

  • ¾ cup tomato, seeded and diced

  • ¾ cup kale, finely chopped

  • ¼ cup raw cheese, grass-fed (such as hard cheddar)

  • 2-3 tablespoons red onion, minced

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees

  2. Add approximately half a teasppon of coconut oil to each muffin tin and using a wadded up paper towel or your hands, liberally grease each tin with the oil. The more oil, the easier the pan will clean up afterwards. Set aside.

  3. Toss approximately 2 cups of fresh vegetables and/or cheese together in a medium sized bowl. Set aside.

  4. Blend eggs together in a food processor, blender, or with a whisk. Add salt and pepper. Combine with vegetables and mix well.

  5. Fill each muffin tin with egg batter until evenly distributed. Bake for 12-15 minutes until centers are just set but still jiggly and wet looking. Cool for 10 minutes. Extract muffins by tracing the border of each tin with a spoon and then scooping from the bottom.

Notes

When completely cool, store muffins in a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or microwave for 1 minute.
