These easy Swiss Chard & Egg Muffins are delicious and nutritious! They make handy little snacks for breakfast on the go. They are also the perfect size either for a lunch box or for an easy-to-eat, protein-rich small meal if treatment has left you without appetite. The muffins use a simple frittata-type batter that is divvied up between the cups of a muffin tin instead of being cooked in a frying pan.

3 servings

20 min prep

7 ingredients

It’s best to chop the chard and parsley a little more finely than you would for a frittata so that the mixture fits nicely into the muffin cups. This recipe makes 6.

These muffins will keep in the fridge for up to 2 days, so can be made ahead of time.
