​Bacon Egg Breakfast Bites

A breakfast meal prep recipe! I never post these! I am putting my best efforts forward to get my mom to eat paleo to help her health, so I prepped these for her. Since I did not eat them I can't give my review on this one, but they are pretty basic egg muffins so I really don't think you can go wrong with these. This recipe yielded 12 mini muffins, so about three of these would equal having 2 eggs and 1.5 slices of bacon. I typically recommend an egg muffin to those that are new to paleo, need an on-the-go breakfast option, or just need a new breakfast idea that the whole family will enjoy. This one is a very general recipe to build from, so add whatever veggies or protein you like to them and get creative!

​Bacon Egg Breakfast Bites
Ingredients:

• 8 whole eggs
• 6 slices bacon
• ½ tsp paprika
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp fine grain sea salt
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives

Directions:

1. Cook the bacon in a cast iron skillet over med-hi heat until crisp, drain on paper towels and set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a muffin pan or line with baking cups.
3. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, paprika and onion powder. Crumble the cooled bacon and add to the egg mixture. Last, add the chopped chives and stir to combine.
4. Fill the muffin cups ¾ of the way up to make 8-10 egg bites. Bake in the preheated oven 10-15 minutes, or until the eggs have JUST set. Remove from oven and let cool before removing and serving.
5. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze them for later use. Enjoy!
