Breakfast, snack, quick lunch, or mid-week pick-me-up, you name it! These Broccoli Cheddar Egg Muffins are bursting with flavor, and they are packed with feel-good nutrients that will make a keto diet look like a walk in the park. The base is so simple, and you can add to it whatever you have handy while you are meal-prepping. I find the combination of broccoli and cheddar an absolute hit, but you could also try smoked salmon and dill, ham and rosemary or feta cheese and tomato! I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas, so please don’t forget to leave a comment and let us know!
