Egg Muffins

Easy, delicious and full of protein! Thank you to my neighbor Oxana for this recipe.

EGG MUFFINS

INGREDIENTS:

• 6-7 eggs

• Half-and-half or heavy cream (about 1/3 of a small container)

• Cheese (I used shredded reduced-fat cheddar, but you can use mozzarella, goat cheese or whatever kind of cheese you prefer!)

• Cooked bacon (or Canadian bacon)

• Salt & Pepper to taste

• Optional: Scallions, onions, mushrooms, peppers, etc. (be creative!)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

2. Spray muffin tin with non-stick spray (I butter-flavor Pam).

3. Whisk the eggs and half-and-half for about one minute.

4. Add salt & pepper to taste.

5. Using a 6-muffin tin, fill each about 3/4 of the way and add bacon, cheese, etc.

6. Add a little more egg to each muffin tin to cover bacon, cheese, etc.

7. Place muffin tin on a sheet pan and bake at 375 for approximately 20 minutes (don't overcook or the eggs will get dry). Note: They will deflate once removed from the oven, that's normal! Add salsa if you want more flavor! Enjoy!
