Egg Muffins
A perfect way to food prep a nutrient-dense breakfast for busy mornings.
Ingredients
- 10 eggs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2-1 cup chopped mixed vegetables
- 1/4 cup Diced chicken sausage
Process
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Stir in your vegetables and sausage.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
- Bake the egg cups in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed up and set in the center.
- Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the egg cups cool for a few minutes before using a knife to loosen the edges and pop them out of the tin.
- Serve the egg cups warm or at room temperature, garnished with additional nutritional yeast or chopped herbs if desired.
- Topping ideas: Sliced avocado, sliced jalapenos, and salsa or hot sauce are some of our favorites!
Tips:
- These egg cups are a great make-ahead breakfast or snack, as they can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Simply reheat them in the microwave or oven before serving
- You can use any mix of veggies and proteins. Some of our favorites are: spinach, tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms, leeks, and broccoli. You can exclude meat altogether or use whatever you have on hand. Leftover ground beef is also a great option!
- You can also sauté the vegetables in a bit of olive oil before adding them to the egg mixture, to help them soften and release some of their moisture.
