How to Make Miniature Mexican Frittatas

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease 12 (2 1/2-inch) muffin cups.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup chopped fresh spinach, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the spinach mixture and gently stir to combine.
  5. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley.
  6. Evenly spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittatas are set and lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the frittatas stand in the muffin tins for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
  9. Serve immediately with salsa and sour cream, if desired.
