Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or a bit of olive oil.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until it is browned and fully cooked. Break up the meat with a spatula as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until they release their moisture and start to brown.
- Add the spinach to the skillet with the mushrooms and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted. Drain any excess liquid.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites until frothy.
- Add the cooked turkey, mushrooms, and spinach to the egg whites. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
- Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full. You may need to gently stir the mixture between pours to ensure even distribution of the meat and vegetables.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and lightly browned on top. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Allow the egg muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing them. Serve warm, or let them cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. They can also be frozen for longer storage.
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Sauté the ground turkey in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and become tender. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Combine the cooked turkey, mushrooms, and spinach.
- Distribute the turkey and vegetable mixture evenly among the muffin tins.
- Whisk the egg whites in a bowl and pour them over the mixture in each muffin tin, filling them to the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and lightly golden.
- Let the muffins cool slightly before removing them from the tin. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
- Feel free to add other vegetables or season it with your favorite herbs and spices to create different variations.
