Notes
1. Tomato - If you use ordinary tomato, use 1 medium one and scrape out the watery seeds and just use the flesh.2. Vegetables - Feel free to sub the vegetables with other vegetables of choice, as long as they are not watery (eg zucchini and eggplant would need to be cooked before stirring through as they leach a lot of water). Also, pickled / marinated vegetables and antipasto things (olives, gherkins etc) are terrific.These egg muffins are intended to be healthy but I won't judge if you want to load them up with goodness like cheese, salami / cooked bacon etc! :)3. STORAGE: Keeps for 3 - 4 days in the fridge, or 3 months in the freezer. Microwave from frozen or defrost overnight in the fridge. Best served warm.4. Nutrition per muffin. I find 2 muffins satisfying as a breakfast!
