Easy Paleo Ham & Egg Cups

Another simple egg muffin breakfast option that I made for my mom this week. I bought an Applegate brand sliced ham, which is gluten free, dairy free, and casein free, and definitely the best deli meat brand I have come across. Note, this recipe only makes 6 muffins, so if you want to double this make sure you buy 2 packages of Applegate deli meat! ​Throw in your favorite veggies or just follow the recipe as is and use diced bell peppers. I added a tiny bit of cooked bacon and 1/2 tsp of dried oregano to this recipe, but the original recipe does not include that. These type of breakfast egg muffin recipes are really just an idea and you can get as creative as you want with them. This one turned out delicious and if my mom doesn't like them then I will certainly enjoy them!
