Bacon Spinach Egg Muffins
The incredible egg just never gets old. It's amazing how versatile they are and for me, they make a meal any time of the day. Whoever started the saying "Real men don't eat quiche" never met my boys, they love quiche, egg muffins breakfast casseroles and brunch bakes. I make these individual egg muffins often for many reasons not the least of which, they're super simple to make and the mix-ins can easily be personalized o your personal taste.
Tips and Tricks
After whisking together the eggs and seasonings, stir in the remaining ingredients by hand. When dividing among the muffin cups, try to make sure the mix-ins evenly distribute among each muffin. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top then bake until puffed and golden. These egg muffins reheat well too, so they're handy and waiting for your hungry eaters when they're ready to eat.
