* side note: no matter how much I buttered the muffin tin .. they still stick!
That depends on how hungry you are and how they fit in your personal carbohydrate allotment.

This recipe makes 6 servings. You can eat more than 1 serving if you are still hungry.

I'm not surprised people who warmed them in the microwave thought the texture off. eggs reheated in the microwave are just gross! the texture of these was fine (to me) when reheated in the oven or toaster oven. do not wrap in foil when reheating or they will be a bit soggy.
That depends on how many egg muffins you make. The recipe as written makes 6 servings at 2g carbs each.
If you like the taste and the texture when they are cold, there is no reason that wouldn't make a great grab and go breakfast.
