Ingredients

  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 bag (8 oz) spinach (chopped)
  • 7 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup skim milk
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1 medium tomato Tomato (seeded and finely diced )
  • 1/2 cup Crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease or line a 12-cup silicone muffin pan.

  2. 2

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add spinach and cook for 3–4 minutes until wilted and most of the liquid has evaporated. You should end up with ~1 cup (150 g) cooked spinach. Let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, black pepper, and oregano (if using) until smooth.

  4. 4

    Divide the spinach evenly among muffin cups. Top each with diced tomato and a sprinkle of feta. Pour egg mixture over the spinach and tomato, filling each cup about ¾ full.

  5. 5

    Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until the eggs are puffed and set in the center.

  6. 6

    Let them rest for 5 minutes before removing from the pan. Serve warm or refrigerate up to 4 days and reheat gently in the microwave.
