🥒 Cheesy Zucchini & Potato Bites (Mini Frittata Muffins)

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prep Veggies:
  • Grate zucchini and potato using a box grater.
  • Place in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This prevents soggy bites!
  • Set aside.
2. Preheat & Prep:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil.
3. Mix the Batter:
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
  • Add grated zucchini, potato, cheese, green onions, oregano, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
  • Stir until well combined.
4. Fill & Bake:
  • Spoon mixture evenly into muffin cups (fill about ¾ full).
  • Bake 20–25 minutes, until tops are golden brown and centers are set.
  • Let cool 5 minutes in pan, then gently remove with a knife or spoon.
5. Serve:
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Garnish with extra chopped green onions or fresh herbs.

💡 Tips & Variations:

  • Add protein? Mix in ¼ cup cooked crumbled sausage, bacon, or ham.
  • Extra cheesy? Add 1 tbsp Parmesan or feta cheese.
  • Gluten-free? Naturally GF — just check any added ingredients.
  • Vegan? Use flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flax + 3 tbsp water per egg) and dairy-free cheese.
  • Make ahead? Freeze cooled bites in airtight container for up to 3 months. Reheat in oven or air fryer.

These cheesy zucchini & potato bites are savory, satisfying, and packed with veggies — exactly like your photo! The crispy edges, melty cheese, and herby flavor make them perfect for any meal.
