Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with olive oil cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large bowl, crack the 6 eggs and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Add the skim milk to the eggs while continuing to whisk until well blended.
Stir in the diced red bell pepper, chopped spinach, and sliced green onions into the egg mixture.
Add the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper to the mixture, stirring well to combine all ingredients evenly.
Carefully pour the egg and vegetable mixture into each muffin cup, filling each about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the egg muffins are firm to the touch and lightly golden around the edges.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.
Gently lift the muffins out with a spoon and serve warm, or let them cool completely before storing in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
