Instructions:
Over medium heat start cooking the bacon. I like to cut it to small pieces, gets cooked faster and fit in the muffin pan. Cooked the bacon for a few minutes until start getting nice brown color, add the finely chopped mushrooms and continue cooking. In a mean time finely chopped the spinach and added to the pan with bacon and mushrooms. Sprinkle with a little bit of salt and black pepper. Sauté everything until fully cook. Put it a side and whisk the eggs and add in the mixture the cheese, salt and pepper to taste. You can add a little bit of heavy cream( totally optional) . If you are dairy free skip the heavy cream.
Use a 12 cup muffin pan and oil or spray it with non-stick cooking spray. Use a measuring cup to fill each muffin cup half way with the egg and cheese mixture, and then add the sauté spinach, mushrooms and bacon.
Bake on pre heat oven on 350 for 20-25 minutes. Let the muffins cooldown for 30 minutes before removing from the pan.
