Finding a breakfast that’s both nutritious and fun for kids can be a challenge, but these Vegetable Omelet Muffins are a game-changer. Packed with vitamins, protein, and fiber, these muffins are the perfect way to sneak in some veggies while keeping the kiddos happy and satisfied. Plus, they’re portable, making them a great option for busy mornings or school lunches. Here’s how to make this easy, kid-friendly recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your child’s favorite cheese)
  • 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers (any color)
  • 1/4 cup diced onions (optional)
  • 1/2 cup spinach (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup zucchini, grated or finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • Olive oil or non-stick spray for greasing

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray. This recipe should make about 12 muffins, depending on the size of your tin.

2. Prepare the Vegetables:

Chop all the vegetables into small pieces. For picky eaters, you can grate or finely chop the veggies to make them less noticeable. This is an excellent way to incorporate hidden nutrients into their diet without them realizing it!

3. Whisk the Eggs:

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Add a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder (if using), and whisk again to season the egg mixture.

4. Add the Veggies and Cheese:

Stir in the prepared vegetables and cheese into the egg mixture. Make sure everything is evenly mixed. You can customize the vegetables based on your child’s preferences. Try adding mushrooms, broccoli, or even sweet potatoes for ext
