Egg Muffins! Fast food meets DELICIOUS & HEALTHY!

I really don't know why it's taken me SO long!  I LOVE the idea of quick, grab-and-go egg muffins for breakfast or a snack!  They always LOOK amazing - and seem SO easy!
Now that I'm following a timed-nutrition approach to eating, having meals READY TO GO is a life-saver!  

I finally got my happy-dappy little self in gear, took 5 minutes to mix up the ingredients between the kiddos' drop-off and pick-up from school on Friday, and I am SO hooked! 
These little muffins are PACKED with protein, veggies, fiber and they keep my energy high until my next meal (in about 2-3 hours! ;)
​Definitely going into my meal rotation!!

Really, you can put whatever you want into these cups!  I modified this Beachbody recipe here - had to make a few changes because I didn't have all the ingredients!

• Nonstick cooking spray
• 2 cups pre-cooked quinoa
• 2 large eggs lightly beaten
• 2 large egg whites (1/4 cup)
• 1 cup diced broccoli florets (about 1 medium head of broccoli)
• 1/2 cup diced organic Applegate turkey bacon, cooked (Or you can use ham)
• 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
• 1 large yellow sweet onion diced
• 1 red bell pepper diced
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (I didn't use this in mine, but it will only make them taste even better!)
• 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese (Again, I didn't use cheese, but feel free!)
• sea salt (or Himalayan salt) and ground black pepper to taste; optional
• ​1/2 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

1. Heat oven to 375° F.
2. Lightly coat two regular twelve-cup muffin tins with spray. Set aside.
3. Cook turkey bacon. Saute onions, red peppers & broccoli florets until soft.
   (I always add a little water first to steam the veggies, and then 1/2 tsp of coconut oil to saute.)
4. Combine quinoa, eggs, egg whites, broccoli, cheddar & Parmesan cheese (if using), turkey bacon, parsley, red peppers, onions and green onions in a large bowl; mix well. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
5. Evenly pour quinoa mixture into muffin cups.
6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of cups comes out clean.
