02 - Heat the tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and red bell pepper and sauté for 2–3 minutes until just tender.
03 - Add the peas and spinach to the skillet, cook for about 1 minute until the spinach wilts, then remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
04 - In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, crumbled feta, grated Parmesan, chopped dill, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper until uniformly blended.
05 - Gently fold the sautéed vegetable mixture and the sliced scallions into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
06 - Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
07 - Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the centers are set and the tops are lightly golden. Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
08 - Run a knife around the edges of each cup, pop out the muffins, and serve warm or at room temperature.
