    Variation: Instead of muffin tins: small fry pan sprayed with pam and mixture poured from a measuring cup to portion it out (8 servings) Immediately top it with a whole wheat flour tortilla wrap. Cook it about one minute on high, flip it out of the pan, roll and wrap in saran wrap. Finger food! - 8/4/08

    Very good and quick. I sauteed onions, mushrooms, green peppers and spinach, then mixed that with the egg. I was able to make 10 of them. This will be a great breakfast on the go in the mornings. - 8/9/08

    I made these this afternoon for brunch for me and my husband. I changed it a little we dont like goat cheese so i used 3 teaspoons of fat free cottage cheese. I also added frozen red, yellow and green pepper along with some mushroom. I sauted the veges also. We loved it!!

    These are great. I didn't have broccoli so used aspargus (blanched them first) and added a little chopped onion and a bit of mustard (I find egg things get a little kick from that.) These are yummy and versatile. I'll freeze a few for meals through the week. - 4/19/09

    If you are not a veggie eater or don't like the texture of broccoli, stick it in the food processor and chop it up really fine. You really won't notice the veggie then. - 3/1/09

    These are great! I put them in those little muffin papers, so getting them out of the pan was easier. I used ham, feta cheese, chives and parsely...didn't have any green vegetables today. I used 6 eggs and the recipe only made 8; perhaps my muffin pan is bigger? - 7/19/09

    Doubled the recipe. Sauteed separately different vegs and potato. My daughter and I made our own combinations and each one is different. Topped each one with cheese (different types) and a few with bacon pieces. Tried using the paper baking cups instead of oil. Works great! These are wonderful! - 6/28/09

    Just tried this for brunch. I'll probably do it again, with changes. First, I like the idea of sauteeing the veggies first. Chop veggies VERY fine, and add seasoning. A bit bland. Had to add salsa to spice it up a bit. Over all a good idea (LOVE the idividual servings - fun). - 8/9/08

    Lots of fun w/this recipe! Spinach, bacon & bleu cheese. Making it mex w/onion, tomato, jalapeno, sweet corn & jack; to just veggie-licious with grated carrot, spinach, chopped zucchini, snow peas & shrooms. Always turns out great whether I use 6 egg whites & 1 egg or all egg. Endless possibilities! - 3/29/10

    I agree with a previous comment ...use two whole eggs and 6 egg whites. This recipe is versatile...you can use whatever veggies you have in the fridge. As far as adding cheese and bacon...remember we are trying to eat healthy to lose weight...that would add way too many calories and fat. Focus. - 7/9/09

    These were delicious! I think I need a silicone muffin form though, as even with spray mine got a little stuck. The variation possibilities on this are endless! And I totally wouldn't have thought that there was enough liquid when I poured them, but they were perfect! (Had to cook a touch longer) - 6/21/09

    Incredible!! I love these and so did my son! They will be great for making ahead for both of us to have a quick breakfast that either one of us can make. You could easily crumble one in to a wrap or tortilla after heating in the microwave. That's how my son would do it..easier than frying. Great!!! - 6/20/09

    Couldn't find my regular muffin tins, so I broke out the mini-muffin tins, and have frittatta bites instead! One batch made 32 mini-muffin-size frittatas, so 3 is a 'serving' (roughly). Flavor was good, although (oops) I omitted the salt and pepper. Think next time, I'll use spinach instead of broc! - 3/29/10

    I hate cleaning egg out of my muffin tins. Can you put these in muffin cups first? Maybe I could spray the tins and add a dusting of flour to prevent the egg sticking to the pans. Any suggestions? I did spray when I made these the first time but still had egg residue to clean up. - 5/17/09
