- 2 to 3 Tablespoons picante or other hot sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, optional
- 3 Tablespoons diced red or white onion
- 1/2 medium bell pepper, thinly sliced or 1/4 cup chopped

- Optional protein topping – sliced smoked salmon, cooked chopped bacon, cooked chicken sausage
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 12-muffin cup pan with nonstick cooking spray or line with paper muffin liners. (See notes)
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg whites. Stir in the hot sauce, salt, pepper, garlic, and onion.
- Add 1/4 cup of the egg batter to each muffin cup then layer the bell peppers, spinach and cheese on top.
- Spoon the remaining egg batter on top of each muffin. The batter will fill the muffin cup.
- Top with optional protein choices.
- Bake the egg muffins 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. The eggs should be fully cooked and browned around the edges.
- Store cooled muffins in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
