  3. Evenly distribute the chopped bell pepper, tomatoes, and spinach or kale into each muffin cup.

  5. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the top of each filled muffin cup for a delicious finish.
Baking

  2. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes before carefully removing from the muffin pan.

Notes

For a perfect rise, avoid overfilling the muffin cups. Store leftover muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months. To reheat, simply microwave for a minute or bake from frozen at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes. Consider adding cooked bacon or sausage for a heartier version or swap out feta for cheddar cheese for a different flavor twist.
