Recipe – Denver Omelette Style Egg Bake

I’ve been having fun making different egg-type breakfasts over the weekend.  I decided to switch things up this week and make an egg bake instead of my normal protein shake.  This recipe is modified from: https://www.cookingclassy.com/baked-denver-omelet/

Recipe: Easy Egg Muffins

Serving size: 1/6 of recipe (1 large muffin or 2 regular sized muffins)

Ingredients:

  • 6 whole eggs
  • 12 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all above ingredients well.  Pour evenly into muffin pan (I have a pan that holds 6 large muffins that works perfectly!).


This is the “base” recipe.  You can add any kind of veggie, protein, or cheese to mix it up.  Below are some combos that I love:

  • Turkey sausage, spinach, Parmesan cheese
  • Bacon and cheddar cheese
  • Spinach, mushroom, and onion
  • Spinach, tomato, mozzarella cheese with a little basil
  • Peppers, onion, pepperjack cheese, salsa

Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Salad

Serving Size: 4 oz or 1 1/2 cups (5 servings total)

Ingredients:

  • 20 oz chicken breast
  • 2 cups celery (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup carrots (chopped)
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions (I use the white and green parts)
  • 1/4 cup Buffalo sauce
  • 1/4 cup mayo
  • 1 Ranch dressing packet


Directions:

Bake chicken at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.  While chicken is baking chop veggies and put in a large bowl. Mix in Buffalo sauce, mayo, and Ranch.  Once chicken is cooked, cut it up in small pieces and mix with your veggies/sauce.


I put about 1-1 1/2 cups of the mixture over romaine lettuce with 1/2 of an avocado.  You can also scoop the mixture on bread and make a sandwich or try it with crackers or chips.

ENJOY! 🙂

** I should note, this variation is a little spicy. If you want it more mild use less Buffalo sauce and a little more mayo.
