    most veggies work fine so long as you cut them small. steamed asparagus is very good in these. you can also replace the cheese with cottage cheese if you prefer.

    They do look yummy! Will they keep for a couple of days? I'm thinking if I made them on Sunday, they would be a nice warm-up breakfast for the rest of the week. Thanks for posting this!

    I was thinking about doing something like this and freezing them, do you think that would work? Also, I wanted to add some brown rice to get some whole grain into it and have a little of everything for breakfast.

    I make something like this all the time! It's a great time saver to make it once a week and be able to have quick eggs in the morning. They keep fine in the fridge for the week.

    Usually I use 4 eggs and 4-6 egg whites. And I always use spinach, sometimes mushrooms, peppers, onions, turkey sausage or canadian bacon and I only use 1/2 cup of shredded cheese on top.
