Recipe of the Day: Egg White Muffins

I like to prep these on Sunday’s so I am prepared for when hunger strikes – which is basically always. You can add in your favorite veggies – whatever you have in the house – cheese if you want it as well. Think of your muffin tin as an artistic endeavor. You can actually make each one slightly different if you want a variety or if you are feeding multiple mouths.

I pulled this recipe from Ambitious Kitchen! The photos too!

Ingredients
•    2 1/2 cups egg whites
•    3 eggs
•    3/4 cup reduced fat shredded cheese of choice (I love cheddar, colby jack, or pepper jack)
•    2 tablespoons of skim milk or plain greek yogurt (not necessary, but gives them a bit of fluff)
•    salt and pepper

Instructions
1.    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, you can also line with muffin tins, just make sure you spray the inside of the muffin tins.
2.    Fill each muffin tin 1/4-1/3 full with veggies and herbs of choice. Add in 1 tablespoon of cheese to each muffin tin.
3.    In medium bowl whisk together egg whites, eggs, and milk/yogurt. Fill each muffin to the top with egg mixture, pouring over the veggies already in each tin. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until risen and slightly golden on top.
4.    Let cool for a few minutes, then remove from tin.

**Notes
Calorie Count does not include veggies you may add.
Egg muffins should be kept in fridge after baking; however they may become soggy or moist, that’s okay, they’ll still be delicious when reheated! I like to individually wrap mine.
