🥦Broccoli🥦 1️⃣Maintains strong bone – Vitamin K, calcium, magnesium and potassium are essential for healthy bones, nails and teeth.  2️⃣Maintains heart health – high fibre content is great for lowering cholesterol naturally.  3️⃣Increases gut and digestive health – due to its high fibre content. 4️⃣Maintains eye health and vision – due to high levels of the carotenoids called lutein and zeaxanthin. 5️⃣Promotes healthy skin – contains sulforaphane which helps repair skin damage. Its high levels of vitamin A and vitamin C prevent collagen breakdown, skin cancer, UV damage, wrinkles and skin inflammation. 6️⃣Helps with weight loss – As a complex carbohydrate which is high in fibre, broccoli is great for balancing blood sugar levels, ongoing energy and helping you to feel full.

The Preparation

Preheat your oven at 375⁰F and spray cooking spray in the mini-muffin tin. Heat oil in a small pan over medium heat then add the chopped onions and sauté for about 4 to 5 minutes or until they become translucent. After that add the broccoli and garlic and cook it until they become soft.

In a medium bowl combine the eggs and milk together by using a fork, add the Sriracha and mustard and give it a good mix.

Divide the broccoli mixture between each prepared mini-muffin cup, sprinkle cheese on top of broccoli mixture and then pour the blended egg mixture over broccoli and cheese mixture. Lastly, sprinkle with paprika.

Bake it for approximately 10 minutes or until the cheese is lightly browned. Serve it immediately!
