To achieve the perfect filling for your Cheesy Green Chili Heaven Toast Cups, it's essential to focus on the consistency of the egg mixture. Begin by cracking your eggs into a large mixing bowl. For a creamier texture, consider whisking in a splash of milk or cream, which will add richness and help bind the ingredients together. Aim for a smooth, uniform mixture with no streaks of egg whites visible. This ensures that every bite of your toast cup is packed with flavor and has an even distribution of ingredients.

Ingredients
  

4 slices of whole grain bread

4 large eggs

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/2 cup diced green chilies (canned or fresh)

1/4 cup milk

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)

Cooking spray or butter for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Bread Cups:

      - Using a rolling pin, flatten each slice of bread to about 1/4 inch thick.

        - Lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or butter.

          - Gently press each slice of flattened bread into the muffin tin molds to form a cup shape, ensuring the edges come up the sides.

            Mix the Filling:

              - In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until fully combined.

                - Stir in the diced green chilies and shredded cheddar cheese, mixing until well distributed.

                  Fill the Bread Cups:

                    - Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly into each bread cup, filling them until just full but not overflowing.

                      Bake:

                        - Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 18-22 minutes, or until the egg is set and the tops are golden brown.

                          Cool and Serve:

                            - Once baked, remove the toast cups from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.

                              - Carefully lift each toast cup out of the muffin tin and transfer them to a serving platter.

                                - Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired, and serve warm.
