Healthy Cheese and Veggie Omelette Muffins

These healthy little breakfast bites are great for the January diet or generally for a quick, healthy and nutritious breakfast on the run. They're fab for little ones, my girls are big fans, and they're also good as a weaning finger food for tots.

The recipe below is only for four muffins, but if you're into food prep, you could bulk cook and re-heat when you want - each eggy muffin is approximately 83 calories (MyFitnessPal). 

They're so easy that aside from putting into the oven - my two girls prepared them themselves this morning (they're four and almost two) so if you are challenged in the kitchen, these are a great starting point.

You can also add whichever vegetables you either have to hand or are your kids' preference - mine love broccoli, peppers and sweetcorn, but you could use any type of vegetable leaf here too, peas or anything you like.

Here's how: 

• x2 large eggs
• Splash of milk (about 50ml)
• 25g Cheddar
• !/2 red pepper
• Handful cooked broccoli florrets
• Salt & pepper, to taste

Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees and line a muffin or cake tin with x4 muffin cases.

If you need to cook the broccoli, do so, and rough chop into small, bite-sized pieces and set aside. Chop the pepper into small pieces too and set aside.

Now in a jug, crack the two eggs, add the splash of milk and season to taste, then mix well and add the grated cheese, cooked broccoli and the pepper pieces.
