Egg White Muffins
Overview
Yeah, uh, waking up at 5:30 and making breakfast for the family is NOT my favorite thing to do.
To save myself time, I buy that carton of egg whites, and make some HIGH PROTEIN EGG CUPS.
These are assembled in under 5 minutes and bake in 20. You can double the recipe and make 12, make them the night before, and watch your entire family gobble. them. up. They are picky kid tested and approved, and the recipe is so adaptable!
Consider adding some chopped + sauteed baby spinach or kale, tomatoes, chopped chicken sausage– the possibilities are endless!
