Not Your Typical Muffin Tin Recipe!!

So I was going through my cupboards the other day, cleaning out old kitchen ware that I don't use anymore, when I came across a muffin tin. Muffin tins are great, but we (myself included!) typically associate them with making...muffins. In this area of dessert and carbo-phobes, these sorts of treats have become, shall I say...passé. For me, I still like a good blueberry or bran muffin now and then, but I recently came across a cool, healthy little recipe that blew my health-conscious mind away...

BEHOLD...Feta/Arugula/Tomato/Egg White Cups, the coolest non-muffin recipe you can make in a muffin tin. Set the oven to 350F. Crack about 7-8 egg whites (depending on how many people you want to feed, or how many you may want over the next few days) and set them aside. Then you sauté about 2 cups of organic arugula and put it in a bowl. Chop one roma tomato into pieces and add that to the bowl, sprinkle about 1/4 cup of feta cheese into the bowl. Pour the egg white mix in and pour an even amount of the mix into a muffin tin (spray it with cooking spray first!). I made enough for 5 muffin cups, you might want more or less. Stick that tray in the oven for about 20-25 minutes...this is what you get...

Also, SIDE NOTE--I am sure this can be done with spinach, without cheese, etc...but this combo tastes delicious and the COOLEST part is...these are SUPER EASY to take with you places...like in your car on the way to work, so you can skip out on those lame "I don't have time for breakfast" excuses.

By the way...below is the formal recipe...
