How to Make Lightened Scrambled Egg Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Brown 1/2 pound of sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon.
  3. Drain the cooked sausage well on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups egg beaters, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
  5. Stir in the cooked sausage and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese).
  6. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  7. Spoon 1/3 cup of the egg mixture into each muffin cup.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool slightly in the muffin tin before serving. Enjoy!
