Baked Omelets



 I'm not sure where I got this recipe.  I wrote it down on a piece of paper hoping someday I would make it.  Well today is that day and can I say how wonderful these are?!!! Moist in the middle, I would eat them with salsa next time I make them. I like that they make a high protein breakfast :) and a great grab and go breakfast!   Makes 12 regular muffin size
*** Grease muffin tin :










1 handful diced ham

can fry bacon and save grease for sautéing vegetables

can also fry up and crumble sausage

1 diced onion

1/2 green pepper or can use yellow/orange peppers

mushrooms sliced (optional)

can use any vegetable of your choice, chopped   ---

- sauté veggies in butter (or bacon grease ) until onions are slightly brown

* add meat to veggies

In bowl whisk 8 eggs,

add 1/4 c. milk

1/2 tsp. olive oil (this keeps it moist)

1/2 tsp. baking powder (helps it to raise)

salt and pepper

 to taste

1 c. grated cheese, I use colby/jack and la gruyere, can use any cheese you would like ( make sure you don't overdo it on the cheese or it will stick to pan)

add mixtures together and

--Divide into  greased muffin tin 

Bake at 375 F. for 18 to 20 min. or until golden brown and puffed up.  Leave in pan for 5 minutes.

Serve with salsa.

***Can make ahead and freeze, then heat and eat!

**Can use your imagination with this, my sister used chopped artichoke hearts, a little cream cheese, broccoli and whatever vegetable you like.  

Enjoy!
