- 1 cup spinach, chopped
- 0.5 cups cooked bacon, crumbled

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or non-stick spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk until well combined.
Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced red bell pepper, chopped spinach, and crumbled bacon. Add salt and black pepper, and stir to combine.
Evenly distribute the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the tin before carefully running a knife around the edges and removing them.
