Ham & Cheese Egg Cups

Simple baked egg cups that reheat in under a minute — the easiest grab-and-go breakfast, and a great microwave option for work. Makes 12.

Ingredients

• 12 eggs
• ¼ cup milk
• 1 cup diced ham
• 1 cup shredded cheese
• ½ bell pepper, diced
• Salt and pepper
• Handful of spinach, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 12-cup muffin tin well.
2. Whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and pepper.
3. Stir in the ham, cheese, pepper, and spinach, then divide among the muffin cups.
4. Bake 20–22 minutes until set and puffed. Cool before removing.

Make-Ahead & Storage

Freeze the cooled cups up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave 30–60 seconds from frozen — ideal for taking to work.

Notes

Endlessly variable: swap the ham for crumbled sausage or bacon, or the veg for mushrooms and onion. A pinch of Smokehouse rub in the eggs adds flavor.
