Ingredients

12 large eggs
1 cup fresh herb leaves my favorite: dill, parsley, cilantro, basil, chives. All the soft ones.
sea salt
pepper
1/2-1 cup grated mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F.
Crack eggs into a big bowl and whisk until no longer "snotty". The longer you whisk the more liquid it becomes.
Destalk herbs and finely chop herb leaves. Add to whisked eggs.
Add sea salt & pepper to eggs and whisk vigorously until well combined.
Line a muffin tin with silicone muffin liners (*see notes) and divide egg mix into all muffin liners. Then sprinkle some mozzarella cheese on top of each muffin.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until eggs are set. They will form a dome at first and then flatten while they cool.
Enjoy immediately or once completely cooled store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze in a silicone bag. To defrost, place in the refrigerator overnight, then either microwave or place in the 350F oven for 3-5 minutes.

Notes

* paper liners will not work. The egg will stick to the liners and it will be impossible to remove the paper. A non-stick muffin tin will work but only if buttered and floured well before adding the egg mix.
