There is nothing special about the recipe for these little treats. These muffins are simply portable (and cute!) scrambled eggs! I like to serve them with these tortillas and a bit of salsa. They make a great offering for a holiday meal when you want to serve something tasty for breakfast but don’t want to add even more work to your already busy day in the kitchen. In case you know of any holidays coming up… Let me know if you do. 
These would also be perfect for a special occasion brunch with friends and certainly are better than many of those other egg casseroles that are often served!
scrambled egg muffins
(Make your scrambled egg muffins using the same ingredient proportions that you would use for scrambled eggs.)
6-8 eggs
1/4 lb sausage, removed from casings and divided into small pieces (optional)
1/2 – 1 onion, chopped
1/2 – 1 red or green bell pepper, chopped
mushrooms, green onions, or any other favorite vegetables or greens
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat your oven to 350.
In a skillet, saute your sausage (if using) and vegetables until sausage is cooked. Let cool slightly.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs. Add the sauteed mixture to the eggs and stir well to combine. Salt to taste.
Generously coat a muffin pan with cooking spray or butter. Divide the egg mixture among the muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full. Top each “muffin” with shredded cheese.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are golden brown.

Brilliant! Do they re-heat well? If so, they’d be perfect to have on-hand for snacks.

Well, they heat as well as scrambled eggs reheat. Some people think reheated eggs are disgusting. Personally, I think if you were to put them in the toaster oven, that might work out okay.

These are so cute! Can’t wait to try them. And thanks for the vanilla bean idea (Amazon) below. Who knew you could freeze them? I needed two for a (Bobby Flay) coconut cake, I’ll have to stock up! Thanks, Paula! I also can’t wait to try the chili — you can never have too many chili recipes…

Made these for Abby’s 2nd birthday party. They were a big hit with the adults and toddlers!

Houses and cars are expensive and not everybody can buy it. However, loans was invented to aid different people in such kind of cases.
