- Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare the quinoa according to package directions. Let cool and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until soft and fragrant, about 8 minutes.
- Add in butternut squash and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in the curry powder, salt, and pepper, and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Add chopped collard greens and stir until they become wilted, about 3 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until combined.
- Add the cooked quinoa and vegetable mixture to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
- Use the remaining olive oil to coat 6 cups of a 12-muffin pan. Evenly ladle the egg mixture into the six prepared muffin cups. Bake for 15 minutes or until eggs are cooked through and golden.
