Allow to cool 5 minutes.Using an ice-cream scoop or 1/4 cup measure, scoop the mixture into the prepared muffin pan. Fill to about 1/4 inch from the top.Spoon in sautéed vegetables, dividing evenly in to each muffin cup, then sprinkle a small amount of reserved cheese over each.Place in the oven, and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the egg is fully set and the cheese has just started to turn golden on top.Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before running a butter knife around each muffin, and gently removing from the pan.Enjoy while warm, or let cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Leftovers can be reheated for 20 seconds in the microwave (time will vary depending on your microwave), or a few minutes in a preheated oven or toaster oven.Recipe Note
