Make-ahead baked egg cups with chicken, peppers, and greens — four days of grab-and-go breakfasts.

Ingredients
  • 12 eggs
  • 200 g cooked chicken, diced (optional)
  • 1 bell pepper, finely diced
  • 100 g baby spinach or chard, chopped
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 6 g sea salt
  • Black pepper
  • Olive or avocado oil, for the tin

Click an ingredient once it's in the bowl.

Method
  1. Heat the oven to 350°F and oil a 12-cup muffin tin well — eggs weld themselves to a dry tin.
  2. Whisk the eggs with the salt and pepper.
  3. Divide the chicken, pepper, greens, and green onion among the cups, then pour the egg over, filling each about three-quarters.
  4. Bake 18-22 minutes until just set and puffed; they deflate as they cool, which is normal.
  5. Refrigerate up to 4 days; reheat 30 seconds, or eat cold.
Notes
  • Any leftover cooked meat works in place of the chicken — taco meat is very good in these.
