Ever since I found this recipe, I have been dying to try it!! I made a little changes to the original recipe by adding chicken and using spinach. This is basically like an omelette but in muffin form!! I made this in the even for mornings when I don't have time to eat breakfast. I couldn't help it... I had to try the recipe right away! Feel free to add your own ingredients like I did and for other ideas visit blogilates. Her website has a ton of work out videos, recipes and even clothes!!! I am truly inspired by her :)

Below are all the ingredients I used for my egg muffins. 

Recipe adapted from blogilates.

1/2 red bell pepper

1 1/2 roma tomatoes

Handful of spinach

1/4 chicken breast, diced

3 whole eggs + 2 cups of egg whites

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. 

Dice up all the vegetables and chop up the spinach. Also dice the chicken into small pieces. Mix the egg whites and whole eggs together. 

Line muffin tin with liners and spray oil using pam or misto - be sure to put oil or the egg will stick to the liner. Place 1 tablespoon of egg mixture into the liner then add vegetables and chicken. After, add about 4 tablespoon of egg mixture into the liners; total of 5 tablespoons of egg mixture per liner. 

Bake for about 20-30 minutes. The egg muffins should be firm on top when ready.

You can take your muffin on the go or eat with sriracha, ketchup, or even salsa! I ate mine with Trader Joe's sriracha and it was AH-MAZING!!

Breakfast Burrito

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Sometimes people don't have time to make breakfast though. Even if you don't have time for breakfast, you should always grab something small to get. Here's an awesome recipe for when you have time to make breakfast. Tasty, amazing and healthy :)

I would say it took me about 30 minutes to make. I got my ingredients from Trader Joe's. They have a variety of chicken sausages in case you are not a fan of basil and sun-dried tomatoes. You can also use baked chicken if you want or any type of meat. Also, you can put any types of vegetables you like in your eggs (sometimes I put spinach and bell peppers).

Yields: 1 serving

Dice the ingredients and set aside.

1 chicken sausage
~4-6 strands of green beans

Scramble the eggs together and set aside as well.

1 egg
1 egg white

Saute the green beans and chicken sausage.

When the green beans and chicken sausage is fully cooked, pour the egg mixture on top.

Once the eggs start to pop up on the edges, flip the eggs. Set aside once they are done cooking.

Warm up the tortilla then flip it over to the other side. Place a little bit of cheese down the middle and let it warm up. Remove the tortilla from the pan.

1 whole grain flour oat and flax seeds tortilla
Sprinkles of lite cheese

Place the eggs, green beans and chicken sausage onto the tortilla. After you place the egg mixture on the tortilla, you will have extra on the side. You can eat it or save it for later.

Put some guacamole on top of the egg mix. Enjoy! :)

Nutritional facts for the burrito not including guacamole.

I was shocked to find that this recipe was pretty unhealthy but it's never too late to make a change!!

For a healthier alternative, I would suggest using baked chicken breast (minced or diced), use egg whites only, and no cheese. I will try making the alternative next time and making an update on this recipe. (315 calories - no saturated fats, very high in niacin, high in selenium, and high in vitamin B6)
