Cook this recipe
- large eggs-10 each
- kale-2 cups
- yellow onion-2 cups
- sweet potato-1 1/2 cups
- red bell pepper-1/2 cup
- fresh parsley-1/4 cup
- olive oil-1 tablespoon
- fine sea salt-3/4 teaspoon
- garlic powder-1/2 teaspoon
- black pepper-1/4 teaspoon
Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly coat the muffin tin with a thin film of the measured olive oil; finish dicing the sweet potato, pepper, and onion and chopping the kale and parsley.
Keep fingers tucked and the knife blade angled away from your hand while dicing and chopping.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato and onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the sweet potato begins to soften.
Use caution when adding vegetables to hot oil to avoid splatter burns.
Cook the kale and pepper for 2–3 minutes, or longer until the kale wilts and sweet potato is fully tender when pierced. Finish cooking the vegetables before filling the egg cups.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the whole eggs, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until the eggs are fully blended and slightly foamy.
Wash hands and any surfaces that contact raw eggs before touching ready-to-eat foods.
Divide the vegetables and parsley among muffin wells, then add egg mixture only to three-quarters full. Use a 12-cup tin with wells of at least 1/2-cup capacity. Refrigerate any extra mixture while the first batch bakes, then bake another batch after the tin cools, allowing additional time. Divide all finished cups evenly among the servings.
Bake for 18–20 minutes, or longer until the centers are set and reach 160°F (71°C). Check several cups, including a center cup, with an instant-read thermometer. Use oven mitts to handle the tin.
Cook the egg cups until the centers are fully set and no liquid egg remains.
Use oven mitts when handling the hot muffin tin.
Let the egg cups cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then loosen the edges and transfer them to a rack. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours of baking.
Microwave refrigerated egg cups until their centers reach 165°F (74°C). Start with 30–45 seconds and continue in short bursts as needed; time varies with quantity and microwave power. Let stand and check eating temperature before serving.
Reheat refrigerated egg cups until steaming hot before serving.
