Notes
These egg muffins are loaded with chicken, vegetables and cottage cheese. However, egg muffins can be much simpler. Use any leftover veggies, add eggs, top with cheddar cheese and you have a simple, quick and convenient meal.
Egg muffins make for great lunchbox fillers. You can make them ahead of time, keep them in the fridge for up to 4 days and they freeze well too.
