Egg and Bacon Muffins

On days when I manage to eat a real breakfast, like scrambled eggs, I always start the day in a much better mood and manage to stay full until lunchtime.  Unfortunately I'm usually scrambling in the morning or, more likely, the pan I was going to use is dirty.  So instead I eat a bowl of cereal (ahem, or leftover pizza) plus eighteen more snacks before noon.

Did you know eggs are super easy to reheat in the microwave?  Like, if you reheat an omelet in the microwave two days later, it's basically exactly the same as if you had eaten it immediately.  When I saw this recipe for Bacon Egg Cups, I thought, "Perfect!" A quick and easy way to have a real breakfast, all in a cute muffin package.  Apparently I will eat anything if it was cooked in a muffin pan.



I followed the recipe to the t, so if you want a delicious breakfast treat hop over to Fat Girl Trapped in a Skinny Body to try it out.

P.S.  A lot of the comments suggest pre-cooking the bacon.  I had my boyfriend test-kitchen this (when I say "had" I really mean "tricked into") and we determined that pre-cooking is unnecessary and makes the end product not nearly as pretty.
