A perfect back to school breakfast – these Scrambled Egg Muffins are bite size, easily customizable, and a delicious way to get protein and veggies in at breakfast!

You can use whole eggs, or egg beaters – your choice!

I decided to make my favorite quick and easy egg dish (besides Migas), baked mini Egg *muffins*. Egg Beaters are perfect for these!

I cooked up 2 slices of bacon and 2 oz of hot sausage to add to my dish, pulled out my bag of mixed cheese and went to town.

I sprayed my mini muffin tin with PAM, filled 12 cups 3/4 full with regular Egg Beaters into which I crumbled up the bacon and topped with a sprinkle of cheese and a couple passes with my pepper grinder; the other 12 cups I filled 3/4 full with Southwestern Style Egg beaters and then put some crumbled hot sausage and cheese and again, a few passes with my pepper grinder.

Bite Size Baked Egg Muffins

Bake for about 13 minutes in a 375 F oven

While the Mini Egg *muffins* were baking, I sliced up oranges, cooked some more bacon and toasted some whole grain bread.

Once the Egg cups were ready I plated the meal and set it on the table, as I was plating a dish for photographing (my family is so patient)

I heard; “Mom, look at me”

As I turned back to my dish, giggling, I saw this:

They are working TOGETHER against me, y’all —

I’m so proud 🙂

This meal came together easily in under 30 minutes and was delicious, I love the mini egg *muffins* because they’re the perfect size for little hands and mouths.

Breakfast Egg Bites

I usually add onions, garlic, peppers and spices to mine and Nathan’s eggs so the Southwestern Style Egg Beaters were absolutely perfect and much faster than me doing it all myself.

The kids LOVED their bacon, egg, cheese muffins – my daughter is excited to try making her own scrambled eggs with no eggshells in them with the original Egg Beaters, and when I told them they could even use them to make their favorite bacon and egg tacos — oooh buddy, you’d have thought I told them they won the lottery 🙂

  16. Mmmmm yummy! I so wish the wee ones could/would eat eggs like this because I would love to have this for MY breakfast. Hmmm if I don’t tell them they’re eggs, do you think they’d notice?
