  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chopped veggies (broccoli, mushrooms, green onions)
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • Fresh feta (optional)
  • Healthy cooking spray

Instructions

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Patties in a Donut Pan:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 1 tablespoon water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
  3. Generously spray your donut pan with healthy cooking spray.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the pan until nearly full.
  5. Add chopped bacon, chives, and a sprinkle of cheese (if desired) to each donut mold.
  6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 9-11 minutes until the eggs are set. If using a baking dish, bake for 13-15 minutes.
  7. Toast your English muffins or buns of choice. Add an egg patty to each.

Veggie Patties or 8×8 Baking Dish:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. If your veggies are raw, sauté them in about 2 teaspoons of olive oil for about 5 minutes to take the raw edge off.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 1 tablespoon water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into a greased 8×8 baking dish.
  5. Add the sautéed veggies and a sprinkle of fresh feta (if desired).
  6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 13-15 minutes until set.
  7. Let it cool, then cut into four squares.

Storage Instructions:

  • Refrigerator: Store egg patties separately in a glass container. When ready to eat, toast the muffin and warm the egg patty in the microwave at 50% power for 1-2 minutes, or use a toaster oven.
  • Freezer: Toast the bread first and let everything come to room temperature. Assemble the sandwiches, wrap them in parchment paper or plastic, and store in an airtight plastic bag. Label with the date and remove all the air. To reheat from frozen, toast in the toaster oven for about 3-4 minutes, or microwave at 50% power for 2-3 minutes.
