Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper finely chopped (about 1 cup chopped)
- 1 orange bell pepper finely chopped (about 1 cup chopped)
- 4 green onions white and green parts, finely chopped (about 1 cup chopped)
- 1 teaspoon salt divided
- 8 large eggs
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350F.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the bell pepper, green onion, and ½ teaspoon salt. Saute until the vegetables are soft and tender stirring occasionally, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and the remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Add the cooled sauteed veggies to the egg mixture and whisk again until well combined.
- Pour the egg and veggie mixture into a greased or silicone lined muffin tin. The mixture should come to near the top of each cup.
- Bake the egg cups for 20 minutes, or until puffed and cooked through.
