Egg & Sausage Breakfast Muffins

Long gone are the days of the 8:40am bus pick-up...the older my kids get the earlier the bus comes! At this point, all of my kids are out the door by just a few minutes after 7.  This means breakfast needs to be quick and easy, but I still want our boys to have something healthy and full of protein. I like to make a big batch of these Egg & Sausage Breakfast Muffins and stick them in the freezer. The boys can toss a few in the microwave for breakfast and feel filled up before they head out the door. Spray your muffin tin with non-stick spray and start to layer your ingredients. Layer the Hash browns, meat, cheese and then the egg mixture. Pop in the oven for 40 min and they are done.  If you decide to freeze the Egg & Sausage Breakfast Muffins, let them cool before putting them in the freezer. The kids can pop them in the microwave on defrost for about a minute and then another 30-60 seconds. Each microwave will vary…so try it once and see what works best of you!
