I reheated this morning and they were testy and pleasant enough, I will have them again and they will be a good speedy morning choice when I have myself to get ready and children to get ready for school. I don't believe I will ever use anything but bacon though.
I am glad you enjoyed this recipe. Thank you for letting us know.
That sounds delicious! Thank you for taking the time to share.
I would flash freeze them on a sheet pan and once frozen pop them into a resealable bag. These would be good in the freezer for about 3 months.
Would omitting the above meats still make it a keto meal?
Thank you.
You may want to add a bit more protein.
The 6 serving recipe should yield 12 muffin at 2 carbs each.
You could add in some avocado. This will increase the carbs, but may help keep you satiated.
Thank you for sharing your great tips Susan! Glad that you enjoy, they are great to have on hand.
Yes, you can eat these daily if you like.
I agree with the versatility of this one. It keeps the recipe interesting over time and helps you to satisfy all the members of your household.
There are 2 muffins per serving, but we recommend eating to hunger.
i love the ideas people are sharing.
Broccoli, red pepper, etc all things we will be trying.
:)
Yes, I love how customizable this recipe is!
Depending on your oven, they should take about 15-20 minutes. They will look light and puffy, and be slightly browned on top.
Sausage would be a great add to this one!!
There are 2 muffins per serving, but we recommend eating to hunger. So start with one serving and see how you feel!
That's fantastic! Here's to the first of many delicious meals!
These are made in regular muffin tins, but not the extra large ones. You can get an idea of the size in the video.
