Directions
1. To make the cheesy bacon egg muffins: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 6-count muffin pan with oil or non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
2. Grate zucchini and potatoes and sprinkle with salt to drain water. Let sit for 10 minutes, and press out the excess water. We found that using a cheesecloth is super efficient! Transfer the grated zucchini and potatoes to a large bowl.
3. Crack the eggs over the grated veggies; add bell pepper, scallion, dill, parmesan, and pepper, and whisk together.
4. Divide the mixture evenly into muffin cups filling each about 2/3 full. Top with more parmesan if you like. Bake the cheesy zucchini egg muffins in the oven for 25 minutes or until set. Allow to cool a bit and serve your cheesy zucchini egg muffins immediately, or enjoy cold, or at room temp. ❤️
