Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Finely chop the baby spinach, dice the cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and green onions, and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and sautΓ© for 2β3 minutes until slightly softened. Remove from heat and let cool for a minute.
Evenly distribute the chopped spinach, sautΓ©ed red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, green onions, and shredded cheese into each of the muffin cups.
Pour the egg mixture evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Use a fork to gently stir each cup so the vegetables and cheese are evenly distributed.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18β20 minutes, or until the quiches are set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Remove the tin from the oven and let the quiches cool for 5 minutes. Use a butter knife to gently loosen each quiche from the muffin tin before removing.
Serve warm, or allow them to cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave before serving.
