Do you ever feel like you’re so rushed to get things done in the morning that you’re lucky if everyone eats?
I get it. Getting everyone out the door with lunches, backpacks, and breakfast can be a lot. In my house, it’s much easier to toss breakfast in the toaster oven or microwave (don’t judge), but that usually means we’re reaching for less than healthy options.
Sure, I can do my 2-minute scrambled eggs, but what if everyone wants them? That’s 10 minutes! I know that 10 minutes doesn’t seem like a lot, but when you’re already running late (anyone else have kids that refuse to dress themselves or put on appropriate layers?!), every second counts, doesn’t it?
This is why I love making big batches of things like beet pancakes and having hard boiled eggs and yogurt on hand.

This recipe freezes well (which is why I love it). Simply allow the egg muffins to cool all the way and place them in a freezer bag. To reheat, place the number of egg muffins you’d like to heat on a baking tray in your toaster oven for 10-15 minutes (from frozen). Super easy (and tasty).
If you freeze them, make sure you eat them within a few months.
