Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a bowl, beat together eggs, milk and egg whites. Add chives, parsley, ¼ tsp salt and a generous pinch of black pepper. Mix well to combine. Set aside. For AP add nutritional yeast.
- Add onion, garlic and tomatoes to large ovenproof frying pan with broth. Add ¼ tsp salt and pinch of pepper. Cook on low for 3-4 minutes until tender. For AP, add spinach or replace 1 cup of tomato with red pepper or red onion. Cook vegetables in coconut oil.
- Pour egg mixture into frying pan over tomatoes. Turn heat to medium and let mixture settle for 2-3 mins. Loosen cooked egg from the sides of the pan allowing any uncooked egg to seep down.
- When the egg looks almost completely cooked but still a little unset in the center, transfer pan to the oven to finish cooking through completely – about 5 minutes.
Batch cooking tip or Alternate Cooking Method Option:
- Stir cooked and cooled vegetable mixture into the uncooked egg mixture and pour into individual muffin tray cups. Oven bake to create mini egg muffins.
