These Mini Egg Tortilla Cups are one of my go-to meal prep recipes! Made with all gluten-free ingredients and they’re packed with protein and veggies and are kid-approved.
I am hooked on making these tortilla egg cups guys. They are such an easy grab and go recipe that my entire family eats.
My kids love them, I love them and my husband devours them too. Plus I love that you can use any ingredients you have on hand to make them. Any tortillas, mix-in’s and cheese work! And they only take about 10 minutes to make in the oven so it’s a quick meal idea to make for everyone. And the leftovers stay good in the fridge for up to 5 days.
These will become a staple in your home for easy and quick meal ideas to prep for the week!
Tip: use any veggies or mix-in’s you have on hand in this recipe! Or whatever you and your family love in omelette form
What ingredients you need to make tortilla egg cups:
- 8-inch tortillas – I used these almond flour ones but you can use any you want
- Eggs – I don’t have a sub for the eggs here 🙂 They are a key ingredient! I haven’t tried with only egg whites but it would work – just need more than called for here
- Chopped veggies of choice – I used spinach and broccoli in these but peppers and onions would be great too
- Shredded cheese – you can use cheddar, mozzarella, anything! Even a dairy-free cheese works well
How to make mini tortilla egg cups:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease a muffin tray well
- Cut small rounds from each tortilla that fit your muffin slots (you should get 3 rounds per tortilla)
- Add tortilla rounds to muffin tray and form to fit the muffin slot
- Mix together the eggs, veggies, cheese and spices in a large bowl
- Then fill each muffin slot with egg batter
- Bake in oven for 10-12 minutes (they should brown slightly on top)
- Gently remove the tortilla pizzas from the muffin tray using a knife or spatula and enjoy
Tips for success making mini tortilla egg cups:
- These are such a good recipe to meal prep! You can use any veggies you have on hand. Mix it with eggs and the cheese and that’s all you need
- I love these as a grab and go snack too. We pack them for the park, playdates, anything!
- I keep these in the fridge for up to 5 days and reheat in the microwave to warm up
- If your kids don’t love eggs usually, I’d recommend eating them in this form! With ketchup or honey mustard for dipping too!
