Kitchen Experiment #1 – Obidia’s Egg Muffins

Catholic school requires that all students wear a uniform.  The reasoning behind this is if everybody looks the same, pupils will be less distracted by fashion and better able to focus on studies…Yeah, right!  As a fifteen-year-old Catholic school girl my sole mission in life was to make my uniform look anything but.  Every girl had to wear a gray or navy blue pleated skirt and white Oxford shirt.  Those were the rules.  Fine.  But there was nothing in the student handbook about accessories…

 

So I wore my gray pleated skirt along with 4″ black heels and my father’s tie through the Oxford shirt and red lipstick, just because.  And I got away with it, because I pushed the envelope while still maintaining the clothing requirements.

Sometimes “eating clean” reminds me of my uniform; it gets boring and monotonous.   Enter Obidia’s egg muffin recipe, which repackages the same ingredients into fun little mini quiches.  (FYI – Obidia is my workout buddy and, unlike me, actually knows how to cook things.)  Here’s her recipe:

Obidia’s Egg Muffins

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees
• In a small bowl combine 1 egg and 4 egg whites (about 1 cup of egg whites) with a teaspoon of salt and pepper.  Set aside.
• Spray a pan with butter substitute spray, then saute 1 cup of spinach until the leaves are wilted.
• Add spinach to egg mixture and whisk.
• Pour in a muffin tin.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes

They taste kind of like quiche minus the cheese.  Thanks for the recipe, Obidia and hope you enjoy!  How about you?  Do you have a favorite clean eating recipe?
