Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a small saute pan, heat oil over a medium-high heat. Add shallot and saute until soft, about 1 minute. Remove from pan and add kale. Saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool.
  3. Place a 24 mini muffin tin in the preheated oven on a middle shelf. Let the pan preheat in the oven for about 10 minutes.
  4. Whisk together eggs, egg whites, milk, cheese, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  5. Remove hot muffin in from the oven. Use a pastry brush to lightly butter or oil the muffin tin. Using a small ladle, fill each of the molds in the muffin tin about half full with the egg mixture. Place a bit of shallot and kale in each one. Top to cover with more egg.
  6. Bake in oven for 5 minutes or until the egg is set and the top is golden brown.
