Your favorite breakfast casserole or omelet in egg muffin form! Great for on-the-go breakfasts and very customizable to your own tastes. You can substitute any vegetables or meat that you like. I love to make a dozen of these and have them in my fridge to take on the go in the mornings to work.

Made it as written. These were not only good hot out of the oven, but I tossed the rest in a bag and popped them in the freezer. They warm up nicely in a microwave, just be sure not to overcook them. Read More

Substituted cheddar cheese with mozzarella & grated Parmesan & used spinach instead of red & green peppers. Tastes so good & it's super easy to make. I'm going to make this again for sure. Read More

I baked some of it just as it was and to the rest I added hash browns. My husband and daughter loved them and, God willing, I will make them again. The pic is of the leftovers. 6 left out of seventeen made. I served them with buttered Walmart sliders halved and browned in the air fryer and fruits. Read More

I have made a version of these for many years. Called them our “Grab N Go” Breakfast. Very Tasty. Also Made a version with hash browns as the base. I will definitely try this version. So I can rate it properly. For now a 4 as I know how good mine are. Thank You for Sharing. Read More

For my granddaughter I made these using only egg, fried bacon, and cheese because I knew she wouldn’t like the other ingredients (although I plan to make some for myself, following the recipe.) WOW! She loved them (middle schooler); and it occurred to me how great these would be for kids AND adults on the run. I put leftovers in a ziplock bag in the refrigerator. They rewarm in the microwave wonderfully. Think is a keeper. Read More

I'm so glad I found this recipe. I impulsively decided to make egg muffins for the work week with what I had on hand. This is a very adaptable recipe. I had eggs, spinach, dried onions, (dont jugde LOL) left over butter milk from baking and parmesan cheese. I added 1TB Mrs Dash, salt and fresh ground pepper. I followed the measurements with my substitutes. They turned out perfect, and tastey. I sure if you made it to your tastes you will very happy with it. Read More
