Great way to have the protein from eggs at your disposal, straight from the freezer on busy weekday mornings Great way to have the protein from eggs at your disposal, straight from the freezer on busy weekday mornings
Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    Egg, fresh, 12 large
    Green Peppers (bell peppers), 0.5 cup, chopped
    Onions, raw, .5 cup, chopped
    *cheddar chees reduced fat shreded, 6 serving
    Salt, 1 tbsp
    Mrs. Dash (R) Lemon Pepper Seasoning Blend, 0.25 tsp

Tips

For an added kick, you may add jalapeņo peppers to some, so the grown-ups for a kick of these muffins while in a hurry. You may also add chopped turkey bacon, or turkey sausage; then you have a lot more options than your regular bowl of oatmeal or cereal in the busy mornings.


Directions

Pre-Heat over at 350. Spray 2-12 Muffin Tins
Whisk together(5 minutes) eggs, salt, Mrs. Dash in a big bowl. For lower fat content, you may substitute 6 whole eggs for .5 of a cup of egg whites.
Chop onion & green pepper and add to the mixture. Whisk once more with all ingredients for about 3 minutes. Fold in shredded cheese.
With an .5 cup scoop out mixture into each of the muffin tins- fill to the top. Unlike flour muffins, these don't rise, so to get the best size out of them: fill each one to the top.
Finally, place muffin tins into oven at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. They will look like they are not fully cooked; but when you freeze them and re-heat them, they will finish cooking.
I normally let them cool for about 10 minutes and then I divide the batches into small ziplock bags to be able to pull out on busy weekday mornings. I try to divide the bags into family servings: we are 4, so each bag has 4 muffins- one of each person and it has worked great.
