I've always had a hard time with healthy, nutritious breakfasts that will give me energy to start my day. I can make that happen, but I do not have time to cook a big breakfast every morning. So I was browsing around for some ideas and morphed what I found into my own version of egg and biscuit cups. I made a batch of 6 cups, froze 3 and put 3 in the fridge. I can then heat them up in the morning before work and have a high protein, high energy breakfast.
Ingredients:
6 biscuits from the fridge section in the tube
6 eggs
milk
cheese
season salt to taste
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup bell pepper finely chopped
Start Cooking:
1. Saute the onion and pepper in a small skillet, until tender and slightly browned. Remove from heat to cool. Meanwhile, pre heat the over to 350 degrees.
2. Spray 6 jumbo muffin tins with cooking spray. Flatten out the biscuits into the bottom of the muffin time.
3. Crack the eggs into a large bowl and beat with a few tablespoons of milk and the season salt to taste. If you do not like season salt, use regular salt to taste. Mix in the cheese, however much you like. Then mix in the cooled veggies.
4. Pour the egg mixture into the muffin cups, making sure there is an even amount in each cup.
5. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the eggs are set and starting to brown. Also check to make sure the biscuit is cooked through on the bottom. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely before storing.
Tips and Hints:
1. You can easily add meat to the egg mixture. Just make sure the meat is cooked all the way through before adding it to the eggs.
2. Serve with fruit for a complete breakfast.
3. Use whatever veggies you have on hand. Onions and bell peppers are a good starting point, but if there are others you like, use them.
Enjoy!
