Gluten free egg muffins

Who loves eggs for breakfast?

Me!

When I was a full time consultant and lived in a hotel for 7 months, I actually had eggs every day at their cafe! More often than not, I would actually request an egg white omelette from the chef (with everything), toast a piece of bread or two, and pack it all to eat at the office. Nowadays, I’ve created a new tradition and have omelettes in a much more convenient form – in the shape of muffins!

This is a breakfast food that knows no seasons and is super easy to make. We usually bake up a whole dozen to eat with our dinner on Monday nights and then save a few pieces for breakfast Tuesday mornings. My version is usually pretty healthy and packed with vegetables. I favor tomatoes, spinach, and onion for a mediterranean version of egg muffins. I’ve occasionally added cheese as well for a richer taste. My husband loves these because they remain part of our low carb diet, but also allow him to have something savory and healthy for breakfast. He tries to have a low cholesterol diet too so we usually make our egg muffins with mostly egg whites. The little one has gotten into the groove as well and happily munches on 1.5 egg muffins for her breakfast. It can be a little tricky sticking to a low carb, gluten free breakfast, but these are so easy that it’s no wonder it’s become part of our breakfast and dinner tradition.
