The story of bacon and spinach egg muffins begins in the early 1900s, when American housewives were looking for a quick and easy way to feed their families a nutritious breakfast. At the time, bacon and eggs were already popular breakfast staples, but spinach was not as common. However, spinach was becoming increasingly popular as a health food, and housewives were looking for ways to incorporate it into their diets. One day, a housewife named Mildred Pierce had the idea to combine bacon, spinach, and eggs into a single dish. She experimented with different proportions and cooking methods until she came up with a recipe that she loved. Mildred's recipe quickly became a favorite among her friends and family, and soon other housewives were asking for it. Eventually, the recipe was published in a cookbook, and it has been passed down through generations ever since.
