Ingredients
2/3 cup oats3 T. liquid egg substitute2 large eggs4 egg-whites (I used carton-substitute: 12 Tbsp)~1/2 cup chopped bell peppers & onions (or your favorite veggie on hand)2 oz. Jimmy Dean low-fat breakfast sausage, pre-cooked (or low-fat canadian bacon, or other favorite breakfast or deli meat)1 wedge Laughing Cow spreadable cheese (optional- could use other shredded cheese or no cheese at all; LC wedge = 35 calories)PepperCayenne (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a small bowl, combine oats and 3 T. liquid egg substitute (or 1 egg; adjust cals accordingly). Grease 6-cups in a muffin tin and press 2 Tbsp. of mixture into each cup. Bake in oven for 5 minutes until firm.

Meanwhile, chop and prepare vegetables. Beat 2 eggs and egg whites together in a liquid measuring cup. Season eggs with pepper and cayenne (if desired), or other preferred seasonings.

When oats are baked, sprinkle pre-cooked sausage (or other meat) evenly between the cups, and top with peppers. Pour about 1/8 cup (2 T.) egg mixture over each cup, and top with cubed Laughing cow cheese (or shredded cheese). Bake in the oven between 15-20 minutes, until toothpick inserted into the middle of each "muffin" comes out nearly clean.

* Heat leftovers in the microwave or oven for easy to-go breakfasts throughout the week!
