Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and saute mushrooms and peppers until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
  2. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan and divide veggies evenly between cups. Season eggs with salt, pepper, and any dried herbs and/or hot sauce to taste. Divide evenly between cups.
  3. Bake egg cups for 15-20 minutes, until they are firm to the touch.
  4. Split one English muffin in half, toast it if desired, and serve with two egg cups and one clementine.
Recipe Notes

Keep these in the fridge for 3 days, or freezer for 2 months. To serve, pull out as many frozen egg cups you need and place them in the fridge the night before, then heat for 30-45 seconds in the microwave in the morning.
