These Healthy Breakfast Egg Muffins are my favorite to meal prep every Sunday. They are not only high in protein, low in carbs but also so easy to make. Packed with veggies of your choice, these egg muffin cups are the perfect Whole30 breakfast to make ahead.
Looking for an easy and filling breakfast that will fuel up your day?
This easy and healthy breakfast egg muffin recipe is the solution.
If I didn’t have a satisfying breakfast, I would be so low in energy and “hangry” all day no matter how much I try to “make up” at lunch and dinner.
On the other hand, if I eat a good breakfast, I tend to snack less throughout the day and aren’t as hungry when dinner time comes around.
Ready to fuel a day with a good and satisfying breakfast quick and dirty?
