very easy and tasty.

I agree these are easy and tasty. I made one tweak, rather than combine the ‘wet’ and ‘dry’ ingredients then pour them into the muffin tins, I mixed the ‘dry’ ingredients then put them in the tins. I followed this by covering them with the ‘wet’ mixture. Just a thought …

This is a great recipe. It tastes good and is easy to make, even for a non-cook like me! The best thing, is you can make enough for a few days, or freeze them and pull out to eat when needed.

These are fantastic and easy to make. In a 12 muffin pan this makes 8. I think when I make them this sunday I may try to whip up some salsa to put on it as well.

As always, great quick recipe.
JCrow
YUM! I made with sausage and spinach and a little red onion…served with cantalope. A quick hit!

Made these today, some Paleo for me, and some non-paleo for others in the house (added some cheese and cubed bread). Very easy and tasty.

I have never made an “egg muffin” prior to this morning. Both I and my husband (non-paleo) really liked them! He put a bit of cheese on his, after they came out of the oven, to suit his taste. Look forward to trying it as suggested above. This was quick, easy and yummie!

How many of these do you normally eat? Noticed on the meal plan it had these for sunday breakfast, then leftover ones for wednesday breakfast. Being that I’m single (and most of the recipes are based on 2 people), I was just trying to get an idea of how many to freeze together.

It depends on your normal intake, but I usually eat 2-4, depending on how big they turned out and how my day is looking. You can always add some nuts or a piece of fruit if you didn’t freeze enough together.

baked it as a casserole really really good!

can you make it without mayo? How many is a serving?
RMarks
I’m sure it’ll be fine without mayo. It’s pretty trace amount of it anyway. However, maybe add a tablespoon of olive oil if you do leave out the mayo.
As for a serving, 2-3 muffins is what I eat, depending on the day.

Just made these tonight…ended up adding the veggies and meat to the bottom of the muffin pan first and then poured the mix on top of them. They look so yummy!!!

Just made these for breakfast, lined the cups with a bit of prosciutto and piled a bunch of thin sliced red onion and asparagus coins. blended the eggs (sans mayo) with some salt and pepper in a food processor for 10 minutes to make them extra fluffy and delicious. yum!

Just made my first batch! I used chopped up Steak, broc, spinach, musrooms, onions, and green peppers. I work at a coffee shop and many morning have to be at work by 5:30am. No time for a proper meal. Very excited to have these on hand. Thanks!

Very easy to make and tasted great. I used ham, broccoli, asparagus and onions. Will definitely try again.
dayanis
I LOVE recipes that I can freeze, and I love the idea of having mini quiche or “egg muffins.” I’ll be trying this soon
doniree
These are good….this is our second batch and this time we added mushrooms and cauliflower with maple turkey sausage! These are perfect to make several batches then put in the fridge for healthy snack. Yum!!! First time we added brocolli, turkey sausage and cheese.

How long can these go in the fridge? or if frozen, how do you reheat them so they won’t be rubbery?
thanks!
elizabeth
Hi Elizabeth – They can stay in the fridge for 3-5 days (tops). You can reheat them in the oven or a toaster oven. I’m not a microwave person (and don’t really encourage people to use them), so I can’t help there. Or you could try eating them cold if you’re in a hurry. Anyone else have tips for Elizabeth?

how many muffins in 1 serving?
lilsnack
@lilsnack – Sorry for the confusion. One serving is 2 muffins, and I’ve changed the recipe and nutritional info (at the bottom of the page) to reflect that. Thanks for pointing it out.

Ok want to try these but see no reference to Mayo in the ingredients.
