How long will breakfast egg muffins last:

Typically the egg muffins will last a week if kept in the fridge. I like to make a large batch on Sunday and we can enjoy them during the week on busy school mornings.

How to freeze egg muffins:

You can easily freeze these egg muffins. Just place in a freezer bag. I suggest you letting them thaw over night in the fridge and then reheating in the microwave for a super easy morning.

You can make a bunch of them ahead of time and then keep them in your fridge to use on other mornings. They heat up in minutes for quick and easy breakfasts.

Variation ideas forhealthy egg muffin recipe:

  • Try adding sausage or bacon.
  • Diced onions combine perfectly with bell peppers.
  • Use leftover veggies in the cups. We love broccoli, mushrooms, spinach and anything we have!
  • Any type of cheese will work. Cheddar, monterey jack, colby and more.
  • Bell peppers. Try other types such as red or yellow.

Time Saving Tips:

This recipe calls for bell peppers and sometimes we all add diced onion. Another time saving tip is to use a small food chopper or food processorto quickly and easily chop the bell peppers.

If you do not have one of these, I highly recommend them. They are such a time saver and you can get the veggies really fine if you have children that are picky.

I usually just chop the entire vegetable and freeze what I don’t need. It’s so nice to be able to just take the diced onion out of the freezer for recipes.

This is how I meal prep. It’s so quick and easy and helps get dinner on the table fast.
