Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup onions & peppers finely diced
  • 12 eggs
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup breakfast sausage crumbles I used fully cooked Jimmy Dean Turkey Sausage crumbles
  • 1/4 cup cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray 12 muffin tins well with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
    sautéed onions and peppers
  • Place a medium skillet over medium heat. Spray with nonstick cooking spray and sauté veggies with salt and pepper until tender, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add 1 tablespoon into the bottom of each muffin tin.
  • Crack all eggs into a large liquid measuring cup. Add salt and pepper and whisk until well scrambled. Add 3-4 tablespoons to each muffin tin and do your best to divide evenly.

Notes

*If using raw sausage, be sure to cook it first - alongside the veggies works!
