INGREDIENTS

Makes 12 muffins

1 leek, sliced

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 zucchini, chopped

3 spring onions, sliced

100 g baby spinach

pinch of sea salt and white pepper

2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

6 large organic eggs

80 g feta

handful of pine nuts

2 tablespoons Healthy Chef Marine Collagen

150 g (around ½ cup) cottage cheese

METHOD

PREHEAT your oven to 180 C (350 F).

SAUTE the leek in a pan with the olive oil over low - medium heat until soft.

ADD the zucchini followed by the spring onions and cook for another few minutes.

ADD the spinach then season with a little salt and white pepper.

THROW in the parsley and remove from the heat.

ARRANGE the green vegetables evenly in a greased muffin tray, see notes.  

WHISK TOGETHER the eggs, collagen and cottage cheese, then pour into the muffin tray and mix through the vegetables gently. Alternatively, you can combine these ingredients in a blender.

TOP with feta and pine nuts if using, then pop the tray into the oven.

COOK for 15 - 20 minutes or until set and golden.

ENJOY.

NOTES & INSPIRATION

For a meal prep friendly version, evenly distribute
the vegetables and egg mixture in a muffin tray for individual servings rather than a large baking dish.
