Prep Notes
This is a fabulous grab-and-go that will shake up your family breakfast routine. Spending a total of 35 minutes on these muffins, (including the 25 minute baking time) is worth every second for the time saved on a busy morning. These freeze well — double the batch! Eggs and quinoa provide an excellent source of protein, veggies give you essential vitamins & fiber, and they taste delicious.
