- 1/4 cup cooked and crumbled bacon or diced ham (optional)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or onions (optional)

- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Stir in the shredded cheese and any optional add-ins like bacon, ham, or vegetables.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

- Experiment with different cheeses and add-ins to create your favorite flavor combinations.
- Ensure your add-ins are finely chopped so they distribute evenly.
