4. Evenly distribute vegetable mixture to the muffin cups so that each is
filled to about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
5. In a mixing bowl or large measuring cup (the measuring cup makes for
easy pouring), crack the eggs and lightly beat with a whisk.

8. Top each cup with shredded cheese, about 15 ml (1 tbsp) each.
9. Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes, or until egg cups are set, cooked

cooling. Allow muffins to cool in pan on top of a wire rack for about 10
minutes before removing.
