Ingredients

    12 large eggs
    3 oz shredded asiago cheese
    1/4 c shredded colby/monterey jack cheese
    4 oz (1/2 c) diced ham
    4 oz ( 1/2 c) diced green pepper
    1/4 tsp baking powder
    seasonings to taste (I use salt pepper and garlic powder)
    non stick spray
    12 cup silicon muffin pan
    (24 muffin tin liners and a metal muffin tin if you don't have a silicon one.

Directions

Pre-heat over to 350 degrees. Mix all eggs cheeses, baking powder and season to taste... I like to use some salt, pepper, and garlic powder. However, you can experiment as you desire. Spary non stick spray into the cups of a 12 cup silicon muffin pan. If you don't have a silicon muffin pan, use 2 muffin liners per cup in a metal pan. Pour egg mixture 2/3 full into each muffin cup. Mix together meat and peppers. (you can experiment with these ingredients as you wish as well. Bacon, Canadian Bacon, Sausage, Hamburger, onion, mushrooms, tomato, etc will all make the cooking times and calorie counts vary.) Put a little of the meat and veggie mixture on top of each egg filled cup and gently press into the egg mixture.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the egg mixture is slightly brown on top and has risen a bit.

These are wonderful for a healthy "on the Go" breakfast. You can also use them as a low calorie snack option. They freeze well too so don't be afraid to make a double batch.

*****To lower the calorie, cholesterol, and fat content, use 6 whole eggs and 6 egg whites!
