Muffin Frittata Cups

These little cupcake frittatas are amazingly versatile, and even more tasty!

They are an easy way to 'sneak' in healthy veggies – you can change out what you use depending on your tastes, the season, or just what you have on hand.  They are also easy to make in advance – either a few days, kept in a bag in the fridge, or several weeks frozen!  Just pop them in the microwave when you're ready to eat them.

Delicious, nutritious, and made in advance; it just doesn't get much better than that.







Ingredients:

  • 8 eggs (more or less, depending on size)
  • ½ c milk
  • 12 slices of ham
  • ½-1 c grated cheese, divided
  • ½ c finely chopped onions
  • ½ c finely chopped bell peppers
  • ½-1 c chopped spinach
  • ¼ tsp dill
  • ¼ tsp  thyme
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp basil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F
  2. Carefully place ham slices in cupcake pan, making flower-shaped cups
  3. Whisk together egg, milk, and spices
  4. Mix in onions, bell peppers, spinach, and about ¼ c of the cheese
  5. Fill ham cups carefully almost to top
  6. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top
  7. Bake at 350°F for about 20-25 minutes, until firm and slightly browned around edges
