Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degree 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 oven proof 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 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 uncooked egg mixture and pour into individual muffin tray cups. Oven bake to create mini egg muffins.

Rayzel- I made this & it was delicious! I ended up putting it into the mini muffin trays & baking so that it created lil’ egg muffins & was easier to eat when on the “GO”. My only confusion is the serving size… It says 2 servings but what does the 2 servings entail? I really need to know this answer in the form of the mini muffin trays. If I weigh just 1 mini muffin on the scale, it’s generally about 2.2 oz. I am down 30 lbs & will be starting P3 maintenance soon & plan to purchase your plan. I just really enjoyed this specific dish & wanted to be for certain with the calorie/serving size. Thank you!!! 🙂
Hello! Sorry I know it can be tricky figuring out servings sometimes- my best recommendation is when you are making the dish, check the volume- as weight and volume will vary a bit since veggies and eggs might have a little more or less liquid or volume from time to time, so the best best for this is to combine all your ingredients in a carafe that has measurements on it – then say if your whole batch is like 4 cups of mixed up egg and veggies etc, and it serves 2 say, then you know 2 cups of it is 1 serving and how you divide that 2 cups into your muffin tins is up to you – you would just keep track while you’re pouring how many tins the 2 cups fills and that’s one serving – like that- does that make sense? That’s just an example I don’t know how much volume it actually makes like I said it will vary.
