Equipment

  • 1 muffin tin

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Large eggs
  • 1/4 cup Green bell pepper or red bell pepper.
  • 1/3 cup Ham - deli ham works perfectly!
  • 1/4 cup Onions - white or green onions work great.
  • 1 cup Mushrooms - baby bellas are my favorite because they don't release a lot of liquid but any mushroom will work.
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese - Monterey Jack cheese works great. Any freshly grated sharp cheese works perfectly.
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 can Non-stick baking/cooking spray. Use good quality like La Tourangelle.

  • Dice the bell pepper, onions, mushrooms, and ham into small pieces.  
  • Using a non-stick pan, add the butter. Add the vegetables—Saute for about 5 minutes or until tender.
  • Once the veggies are tender, remove from the heat and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
