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!

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.
