    This is also good if you shape a piece of low cal bread into the muffin pan before pouring the egg mixture in. It adds an extra 50-60 calories but makes it a very portable breakfast or snack food. - 2/11/09

    Thanks very much for your comments. I wanted something quick for breakfast that I could just pop in the microwave at work, but feel like I was still eating real food. My mom and I are addicted to making them now. We have made 88 this week! different kinds of course!

    I made this and substituted the asapargus with spinach, and used turkey bacon instead of ham. I also added a few diced onions. I would make this again. - 2/18/09

    This was incredible! I didn't steam the asparagus and it turned out perfect. - 6/20/10

    So easy. I used Egg Beaters (both whole and white only) along with asparagus and ham. Loved it! In my SP recipe box! - 5/19/09
