Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 cup your choice of pizza toppings chopped
  • 1 cup mozzarella shredded
  • 4-6 egg cups
  • Fruit & veggies
  • Sides of your choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and grease a 24-count mini muffin pan; if using a regular 12-count muffin pan, increase baking time as noted.
  2. In a large bowl whisk 6 eggs and 3 tablespoons milk until combined, then stir in 1 cup chopped pizza toppings and 1 cup shredded mozzarella.
  3. Divide the egg mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way up.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and let the egg cups cool in the pan before carefully loosening them with a small knife or small spatula.
  5. Once cooled, refrigerate the egg cups in an airtight container or zip bag for up to 3 days.
  6. For room-temperature snacks, place 4 to 6 egg cups in the main compartment of a lunch container.
  7. To serve warm, heat the egg cups in the microwave for 1 minute, stopping halfway to flip them, then transfer immediately into a thermos and close the lid.
  8. Finish packing the snack box by adding fruit, veggies, and any other sides into a bento or lunch bag.
