These protein packed muffin tin egg cups will quickly become your new favorite breakfast on the go! Prep ahead, freeze & reheat in the microwave.
Egg Muffin Cups Prep
While your oven is preheating, heat the avocado oil in a medium pan. Cook the broccoli, onion, bell pepper, and turkey bacon until the veggies are slightly softened and aromatic, ~5 minutes. Set aside.
In a blender, add the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.

Egg Cup Recipes Notes & Tips
Grease your muffin tin well to prevent the eggs from sticking. I use avocado oil spray and it works great. If you would like to take it to another level of precaution, use a non-stick muffin tin.
Freeze in a sealed container and reheat in the microwave for breakfast on the go!
