Here’s What You Need To Make These Tasty Breakfast Eggs Muffins

• Eggs: You’ll need 12 large organic eggs or 10 organic jumbo eggs
• Salsa: I use LA VICTORIA® Suprema Salsa medium heat option. You can use whichever salsa you prefer.
• Cheese: I recommend using queso fresco, cheddar, or feta cheese
• Veggies: Spinach, Bell Peppers (any color)
• Seasonings: Fresh Garlic Minced, Sea Salt, and Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
• Sausage: Use your favorite breakfast sausage. I used Spicy Chicken Sausage. (Make sure to cut the sausage into bite-sized pieces so that it cooks thoroughly in the egg muffins.)

How To Make Egg Muffins

1. Add the eggs to a large bowl and whisk well
2. Whisk in the minced garlic, salt, and red pepper flakes
3. Whisk in the salsa
4. Lightly oil each opening of a 12-capacity muffin tin. Fill each opening with spinach, chopped peppers, and sausage. 
5. Pour the egg mixture to fill each muffin tin opening. Be sure to leave ¼ inch space at the top as the egg muffins will expand while they cook.
6. Add in the cheese. Bake the egg muffins for 15-20 minutes, or until set.
7. Let the egg muffins cool for 2 minutes before removing them from the muffin pan. 
8. Top with a dollop of salsa and enjoy!

Storage and Reheating

Store your egg muffin cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Rewarm in the microwave for 30-60 seconds, or until warmed through.

Customizations and Variations

• ADD DIFFERENT MEAT. You can add chopped bacon. simply cut the bacon into 1/2 inch pieces and add it to the egg muffins before baking.
• ADD DIFFERENT VEGGIES. Chopped onions and jalapenos are a great option. Some people also like to add chopped broccoli or mushroom.
• TRY DIFFERENT CHEESE: Pepper Jack, Monterey Jack, Parmesan Cheese, and Cheddar Cheese are great options.
