Easy Breakfast Idea // Egg White Muffins

Mornings around here can be fairly chaotic so my focus is usually around getting the kids ready for school & out the door. I rarely manage to get anything down myself other than a cup of coffee until after I’m back home from drop off. So I was searching for something I can easily feed myself in the midst of the chaos and landed on these Easy Egg White Muffins! I got such a wildly positive response & tons of interest and questions when I shared them on stories a couple of weeks ago, so thought I’d share them here, too!

Today, I’m joining Marty @ A Stroll Thru Life and several other bloggers as they share more delicious recipes again today for our Monthly hop!

EASY BREAKFAST IDEA // EGG WHITE MUFFINS

I had been looking for a simple way to get my protein & veggies in first thing in the morning without having to go through the fuss of a healthy breakfast with eggs each day! The nice part is that you get to do all of your chopping & baking one time and then you have several breakfasts ready to go at the touch of a few microwave buttons.

Here is what I did…

INGREDIENTS FOR EASY EGG WHITE MUFFINS W/ SAUSAGE & VEGGIES

• egg whites [I used about 2 of the small cartons to fill the muffin tin]
• 3 chicken sausages – chopped [I used the sundried tomato & garlic ones from Trader Joe’s]
• handful of fresh spinach leaves – chopped
• 10 cherry tomatoes – cut in halves or thirds
• 1/2 red onion – diced
• feta crumbles 
• salt & pepper
• muffin tin

EASY EGG WHITE MUFFIN INSTRUCTIONS

1 // Start by chopping up the sausage & veggies.

2 // Lightly coat the muffin tin with non-stick spray and start adding the chopped ingredients to the tin.

3 // Then fill the tin with the egg whites to the top.

4 // Sprinkle the feta and salt + pepper on top and bake 15-18 minutes at 375-400°. I turned it up to 450 for another 2-3 minute at the end to finish them off.

5 // Let cool and then enjoy! I top mine with salsa, but green hot sauce and Tajin is Ted’s favorite way to eat them.

I ate 2 muffins [and he ate 3] so we had enough left for another breakfast the next day. Simply pop them in the microwave & enjoy again! Obviously if you’re making for one, then you will have breakfast ready for several days. It’s up to you whether you share or not!! 😉

So easy and delicious on those busy mornings. I love having these on rotation, especially in the beginning of the school year when it’s so hard to get back into a routine! There are tons of recipes like this out there, so you can edit the ingredients and add your favorite things to these Easy Egg White Breakfast muffins.

YUM!

Now be sure to stop over to see what my friends are whipping up this month. So many great things to pin & try!
