May is National Egg Month, and what better way to celebrate than with an easy egg recipe. Although May is almost over there’s never a wrong time for a yummy broccoli cheddar egg muffins recipe. If you’re like me and paying attention to what you eat these days this egg muffin recipe is perfect for you. This recipe helps save time in the morning by prepping a quick grab and go breakfast. It’s a flavorful guilt free breakfast you can prepare in multiple ways to give yourself variety. If you are a macro counter like myself looking for healthy alternatives and meals (carbs, fats, protein, and sugar) you can use egg whites instead of the entire egg to perfectly fit into your macro plans.
I added diced onions to my broccoli cheddar egg muffins, but you can add whatever extra vegetables you prefer. I highly recommend red or green bell pepper, as well as, mushrooms. Mmm! I chose to use Pete and Gerry’s Organic Eggs for my egg muffin recipe. They’re free range hen eggs from small family farms that are certified humane. Knowing where our food comes from is important to my family. Knowing that Pete and Gerry’s supports farmers is an added plus!

Eggs Are Healthy Campaign:
This particular recipe always makes me think of one of my favorite egg dishes: quiche. I love quiche! Especially when the crust is buttery and flaky. Unfortunately, it’s not a food my waistline likes. Ha! This recipe is a nice alternative to those of you who are looking for a healthier option like myself. Speaking of healthier, did you know the FDA doesn’t consider eggs a “healthy” food? I learned through the Eggs Are Healthy campaign how sugary products such as kids cereals and toaster pastries are considered healthy but eggs are not. The Eggs Are Healthy campaign is a petition by Pete and Gerry’s Organic Eggs to have the FDA update their guidelines. You can check out more details on this petition here.
Now let’s start on these broccoli cheddar egg muffins!
