These are excellent. I used Turkey sausage crumbles and topped with salsa

  • 15 eggs (for silicone muffin pans, use 12 eggs for metal muffin tins or individual silicone cups. You can use less egg yolks and more egg white if you prefer.)
  • 1-2 teaspoons Spike Seasoning
  • 1-2 cups grated low fat cheese (I like sharp cheddar or a blend of cheddar/Jack cheese, use less cheese if using meat)
  • 3 green onions, chopped small (optional)
  • Chopped veggies such as blanched broccoli, red pepper, zucchini, mushrooms (optional)
  • Diced Canadian bacon, lean ham, or crumbled cooked turkey sausage (optional)
