Coat a muffin tin with cooking spray.

Prepare a mix of cooked diced ham, bacon, sautéed peppers, and sautéed onions for filling.

In a bowl, beat eggs with a tiny bit of milk, salt, and pepper.

Pour the egg mixture over the filling in the muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, checking for doneness until the frittatas are set in the middle.

Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Store leftovers in baggies in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.
