Ingredients
Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layer Biscuits, 1 tube (8 servings)Johnsonville Original Breakfast Sausage 10 linksOnions, raw, .5 cup, choppedGreen Peppers (bell peppers), 0.5 cup, choppedHormel Real Crumbled Bacon, 4 tbspEgg, fresh, 12 largeMexican Style 4 Cheese Blend (2% Milk), 1 cup
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spray 24 full-size muffin cups with nonstick spray. Divide each flaky layer biscuit into thirds and press one piece into each cup and up the sides. Bake 7 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside when done.

While biscuits are cooking, break up sausage into pieces in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Continue crumbling with the edge of a spatula until the pieces are small and almost cooked through. Then add diced onion and peppers. Cook until onions are translucent. Remove from heat. Toss in 'real' bacon bits and stir well.

Divide mixture between the 24 muffin cups - just a small spoonful into each one. Some of the cups may already look rather full depending on how much the biscuits expanded.

Beat the eggs in a large measuring cup with a pour spout. (I usually beat six at a time) Pour a bit of egg into each cup over the sausage mixture. Do not overfill. The egg can expand and overflow all over your oven. Leave a tiny bit of room in each cup. Six eggs will be enough for 12 cups.

Top each cup with around a tablespoon of cheese - more or less to taste.

Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked through. I usually let cool completely before removing them from the pan.

I freeze them in freezer bags, then pull some out and microwave as needed.

    These taste great. They got me half way through the morning. They are fussy to make so set aside some time. Biscuits puff up at the baking stage, but it all worked out. - 11/13/12
