We love all breakfast food around here. We eat it for just about any meal. Eggs are our very favorite. Farm fresh are best, and we don’t like them any other way! We make these easy little egg cups all the time.
These egg cups can be made really simple, or add a bunch of mix-ins to make them all different ways.
The kids love the basic version of ham, eggs, and cheese. Sometimes we add broccoli, asparagus or peppers.
You can also switch out the ham for cooked bacon or sausage. Super easy and super delish!
My favorite kind is with spinach, mushrooms, ham, and Swiss cheese.
When I make these kind, I sauté the spinach and mushrooms with a little butter before I mix them in with the ham, eggs and cheese. They’re so savory.
They’re great to make several of them ahead of time and stick them in the fridge or even freeze them for later.
The kids love to come home from school and warm them up for a snack. They’re packed full of protein, and healthy fats so they keep them full til dinner time.
Make some, you won’t be sorry!
