# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They reheat beautifully and taste just as good on day four as they did fresh from the oven
  • Each bite feels like having breakfast served at a tiny Mediterranean café without leaving your kitchen
02 -
  • Overfilling the cups causes them to puff up dramatically then collapse into dense little hockey pucks
  • Letting them cool completely before storing prevents condensation from making them soggy
03 -
  • Cheese that's been shredded at home melts better than pre-shredded bags coated in anti-caking agents
  • Letting the mixture sit for ten minutes before baking helps the spinach release some moisture for a better texture
