(from purpleysawks’s recipe box)
Source: Mango & Tomato
Serves 7 peopleIngredients
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 potato, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 onion, cubed
- 1 garlic clove, sliced
- a few pinches of red pepper flakes
- 2 handfuls of broccoli florettes, cut into small pieces
- 6 medium eggs (or 4 large)
- a splash of milk
- cooking spray
- a few slices of thinly cut oven roasted turkey breast (optional)
- 1/2 cup of shredded cheese
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 380F
-
Heat oil in a pan, add potatoes and cook until they are golden brown
-
Add onions and garlic to the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and add a few pinches of red pepper flakes
-
Cook the vegetables till they are tender (undercooked potatoes are horrible)
-
Note: to help potatoes cook quicker, add a few tablespoons of water, cover the pot and let the vegetables steam
-
Add a few handfuls of broccoli and cook a few more minutes
-
Whisk the eggs and milk together (I did not have milk and used fat free half & half instead)
-
Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray, add vegetable mixture and top with some of the egg mixture
-
Optional: first “line” the muffin tins with thinly sliced turkey breast (or ham) and then add the vegetables, followed by the egg mixture
-
Bake in the oven for about 8 minutes, or until the eggs are nearly set
-
Top with shredded cheese and put the muffin tin under the broiler for about 3 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling
-
Serve immediately
