Ham, Egg, and Cheese Cups

Ham, egg, and cheese cups are not the prettiest things to photograph..but, I will testify to their deliciousness.

This easy and healthy breakfast is a weekly staple at our house. It is slap full of protein....a great way to start off your morning. Pair it with some fresh fruit.. yes ma'am you have a superstar breakfast on your hands.






In a medium size bowl, add your eggs and seasoning. Whisk!! Whisk!!



Grease your muffin tin. Take 2 slices of ham and press it into the muffin cup. It will form into a pretty cup.



Pour the egg mixture into the pretty ham cups. I use a bowl that has a spout like, handle thingy. Whew, it is helpful.



Fill the ham cups about 3/4 full. If you have any left over egg mixture, after filling your ham cups, just go back and add a little more to each one.



Sprinkle your shredded, cheddar cheese over each cup. Y'all can use a little cheese or a bunch of cheese.



Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes. Use your handy dandy "cake tester" and stick the middle of your egg cup. If your tester comes out clean, your egg cups are done. Remember..if you don't have a "cake tester", you can always use a fork.



You can keep the leftovers in a Ziploc baggie in the refrigerator.
To warm them up, take them out of the Ziploc baggie and pop them in the microwave. Even after reheating them...they are still moist.

This recipe is also freezer friendly. Put egg cups in a Ziploc baggie and store in the freezer. On those "fun" mornings when your running late, you no longer have to grab a pop-tart. You can pull an ham, egg, and cheese cup out of your freezer and pop it into the microwave. Microwave about 20 seconds. Check it. Microwave about 20 more. (Time will vary from microwave to microwave.)
