1. Cheesy Egg Muffins
You will need:
2 slices turkey bacon
1 cup baby spinach (chopped)
½ cup mozzarella (shredded)
1 onion (chopped)
1 red bell pepper (chopped)
4 eggs (whisked)
3 tbsp low-fat milk
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp dried herbs mix
¼ tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
How to make:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C). Grease a muffin tin with olive oil and set it aside.
Heat the remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat. Put turkey bacon into the skillet and cook for about five to eight minutes until it turns crispy.
Once done, transfer the turkey bacon to a tissue-lined plate and crumble using a spoon. Set the plate aside.
Put the same skillet on low-medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook until the veggies turn tender. Add spinach and cook for an additional two minutes until the spinach wilts.
Mix whisked eggs, milk, paprika, herbs mix, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
Next, stir in cooked veggies, crumbled turkey bacon, and shredded mozzarella. Mix everything well.
Pour the mixture into the muffin tin and place the tin into the oven. Bake the muffins for about 30 minutes until the muffins are cooked through and have a golden brown top.
Take out the muffins from the oven and set them on a wire rack to cool. Serve for breakfast with a cup of fresh lemonade and homemade dip of your child’s choice.
2. Air-Fried Veggie Fritters
You will need:
1 zucchini (shredded and drained)
1 green onion (finely chopped)
¼ cup almond flour (blanched)
¼ cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 egg
½ tsp Sea salt
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp Italian seasoning
¼ tsp lemon pepper
Avocado oil
How to make:
Add egg, one-fourth cup of Parmesan, almond flour, green onions, and seasonings into a bowl. Mix well until everything combines.
Brush the air fryer with avocado oil.
Pour two tablespoons of the batter into the air fryer basket and press with the back of the spoon to flatten the batter a bit. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Close the air fryer and cook the fritters at 385°F (196°C) for about 11 to 12 minutes until their surface turns crispy.
Once done, transfer the fritters to a plate and serve hot with lemon and dill dip or any other dip your child likes eating.
