Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until smooth. Add the milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, and whisk again to combine.
Prepare the vegetables. Dice the red bell pepper, shred the zucchini, chop the spinach, and slice the green onions. Make sure the zucchini is lightly squeezed to remove excess moisture before adding it to the mixture.
Stir the prepared vegetables (red bell pepper, zucchini, spinach, and green onions) into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
Carefully divide the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full to leave room for the muffins to rise while baking.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are fully set and slightly golden on top. You can test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a muffinβit should come out clean.
Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for about 5 minutes. Then, gently run a knife around the edges of each cup to loosen the muffins for easy removal.
Serve warm, or let the muffins cool completely and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving.
