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. 

If you're working hard in the gym or studio classes, it's SO important to fuel your body with the right foods!  These are a great start to any day.
Because seriously - why wipe out all your hard work with the next meal you eat??
