Top Five Healthy Breakfast Choices


1. Egg Muffins

WHAT YOU NEED:

1.6 large eggs
2.1/4 cup of milk (almond milk, coconut milk, etc.)
3.1/8 tsp salt 
4.1/8 tsp pepper
5.1/2 cup of diced bell pepper, red
6.3/4 cup of fresh spinach
7.1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
8.4 slices of low-sodium deli sliced turkey or ham

DIRECTIONS:


1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease muffin pan (we recommend cooking spray or melted coconut oil).*
2. Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
3. Dice bell pepper into small pieces. Stack the spinach leaves, roll them up and slice them thin. Do the same with the turkey/ham slices.
4. Add vegetables, turkey/ham and shredded cheese to egg mixture and whisk to fully incorporate.
5. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full of omelet mixture. 
6. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until centers are set/firm. (Can test if they are ready with a toothpick.)
Allow muffins to cool completely before storing. These can be stored in the refrigerator, lightly stacked in an airtight container for up to 7 days. Re-heat in microwave for 30-45 seconds (if mini muffins) or 45-1 minute if making full size muffins.
