Organic Eggs

Easy LOaded Baked Omelet Muffins

Protein-packed omelet muffins, or baked mini omelets, are a perfect breakfast for busy mornings. Make a batch ahead and freeze for the days when you don't have time for your typical bowl of oatmeal. You can also serve these fresh with fruit salad for a simple weekend brunch.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 slices bacon, chopped 

  • 2 cups finely chopped broccoli

  • 4 scallions, sliced

  • 8 large eggs

  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup low-fat milk

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.

​

Step 2

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the bacon fat in the pan. Add broccoli and scallions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.

​

Step 3

Meanwhile, whisk eggs, cheese, milk, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the bacon and broccoli mixture. Divide the egg mixture among the prepared muffin cups.

​

Step 4

Bake until firm to the touch, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.

TIPS

To make ahead: Wrap omelets individually in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month. To reheat, thaw, if necessary, and remove plastic wrap. Wrap in a paper towel and microwave each omelet on High for 20 to 30 seconds.

Roasted Chicken

ROast Chicken & Sweet POtatOes

Caramelized sweet potatoes and red onion are the bed for chicken thighs that cook up fast in a very hot oven--perfect for a quick healthy chicken dinner. Serve with a fall salad of mixed greens, sliced apples and blue cheese.​

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons whole-grain or Dijon mustard

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

  • ½ teaspoon salt, divided

  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided

  • 1 1/2-2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 large red onion, cut into 1-inch wedges

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1

Position rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven to preheat.

​

Step 2

Combine mustard, thyme, 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl; spread the mixture evenly on chicken.

​

Step 3

Toss sweet potatoes and onion in a bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and spread the vegetables on it. Place the chicken on top of the vegetables.

​

Step 4

Return the pan to the oven and roast, stirring the vegetables once halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and beginning to brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into a chicken thigh registers 165 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes.

TIPS

Cut Down on Dishes: A rimmed baking sheet is great for everything from roasting to catching accidental drips and spills. For effortless cleanup and to keep your baking sheets in tip-top shape, line them with a layer of foil before each use.
