Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep & Preheat

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper cups.

In a large bowl, whisk eggs until smooth and frothy.

Stir in onion, carrot, corn, chili (if using), and any extra veggies.

Add salt, pepper, and herbs; mix well.

3. Add Cheese & Fill

Gently fold in shredded cheese.

Spoon mixture into muffin cups, filling ¾ full (they’ll puff slightly).

4. Bake to Perfection

Bake 20–25 minutes, until puffed, golden, and center is set.

Let cool 5 minutes before removing (they firm up as they cool).

5. Serve & Store

Serve warm or at room temperature.

Store in fridge 3–4 days or freeze up to 2 months.

✨ Reheat: Microwave 20–30 seconds or warm in oven.
