You can freeze these muffins and reheat for a quick breakfast.
-
Swap in different veggies each week to keep it interesting.
-
For extra fluffiness, separate the egg whites and beat them before folding back in.
I can also give a cheesy, loaded vegetable version with potatoes and sausage for a heartier breakfast muffin. Do you want that version?
