Cooking with Pinterest... as a Guideline

In an effort to save money and be more productive *ha*, I was looking for a breakfast alternative to visiting work's cafe in the morning. I found lots of egg muffin posts on pinterest and particularly found this one: http://www.life-as-a-lofthouse.blogspot.com/2013/01/egg-muffins.html?m=1

I started with this recipe, and you can see what happened..

Egg Muffins

8 large eggs 
2 Tablespoons milk (I forgot this one)
1 cup diced Ham (eww- I don't like ham)
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives (Hmm don't have this..)
(One GREEN pepper) 1/4 cup Red bell pepper, chopped
(An unmeasured amount) 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

One Onion, chopped


And it came out like this: 

To summarize, my recipe is: 


Egg Muffins

8 large eggs 
One  Green pepper, chopped
Some shredded cheddar cheese 

One Onion, chopped

DIRECTIONS: 
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray.
2. Saute onions and peppers in a skillet until limp. 
3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs. Stir in onions, pepper and a sprinkle of cheese. Divide into the 12 muffin cups, cover tops with shredded cheese. 

4. Bake for 20 minutes or until egg is set. 
5. Let cool until you forget and re-remember you made these. Loosen with a knife. Store in the fridge and eat through out the week. To heat up: bake in a toaster oven at 350 for 10 minutes, flip and cook another 5 minutes. I enjoy 2 for a morning breakfast.
