Steps:
- Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray. Divide the spinach, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and tomatoes among the cups (they will be about two-thirds of the way full).
- In a large bowl or large measuring cup with a spout (my favorite because it makes the mixture easy to pour), briskly whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt, basil, oregano, and pepper until well combined. Carefully fill each muffin cup three-quarters of the way to the top with the egg mixture. Sprinkle the feta evenly over the tops of the cups.
- Bake for 24 to 28 minutes, until the egg muffins are set. Let cool for a few minutes, and then run a butter knife around the edges of each muffin to loosen it. Remove them from the pan and enjoy immediately, or let cool on a wire rack and refrigerate or freeze for later (see notes for more details).

Steps:
- For the baked eggs: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 6-cup muffin tin generously with cooking spray.
- Toss the kale, Cheddar, red peppers and scallions together in a bowl with a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin cups, pressing down lightly to compact. Crack an egg into a small bowl and then slide it into one of the cups; repeat with the remaining eggs. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
- Bake until the egg whites are just set but the yolks are still a little runny, about 15 minutes.
- For the hollandaise: Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
- Add the lemon juice, paprika, egg yolks and a pinch of salt to a blender and blend on medium-high speed until the yolks lighten in color, 20 to 30 seconds. Lower the blender speed and slowly drizzle in the melted butter. Continue to blend on low until fully incorporated. For thinner hollandaise, drizzle in water 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt to taste.
- Serve the baked eggs warm with the hollandaise.
