Why this supports your day
Egg whites are a lean, complete source of protein that may help support sustained energy and satiety through the morning. Spinach provides folate, a B vitamin involved in neurotransmitter production, and feta adds calcium and flavour. These muffins are designed as a practical, prep-ahead option to support a calmer morning routine.
