Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 8 ounces (227 g) mushrooms
  • 1/2 pound (227 g) hot chicken sausage
  • 3 ounces (85 g) sun-dried tomatoes
  • 2 cups (473 ml) chopped kale
  • 8 ounces (227 g) feta cheese
  • Pam cooking spray
  • 12-cup muffin pan
  • 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) egg substitute

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  2. Add olive oil, then sauté onion for 4 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1 additional minute.
  3. Add mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes. Add chicken sausage and cook for 6 minutes, or until thoroughly cooked, breaking the sausage into small pieces. Add sun-dried tomatoes and incorporate fully.
  4. Add kale and cook for about 2 minutes, until it wilts slightly.
  5. Turn off heat and stir in feta cheese.
  6. Spray muffin pan and add ingredients evenly to each muffin cup.
  7. Pour an equal amount of egg into each cup, filling to just below the rim.
  8. Bake until the eggs have set, about 25-30 minutes.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use crumbled goat cheese in place of feta.
  • To make these ahead, assemble the cups and refrigerate overnight; add 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
  • If using fresh kale, massage it with a little olive oil before adding to the pan to soften it more quickly.
