Breakfast On-the-Run


My husband used to have a longer commute than he does now (thank goodness!), so I was always looking for something easy and healthy that he could eat in the car on the way to work.
 
This the 'at-home' version of the famous breakfast sandwiches.  I'd make mini omelettes in a muffin tin and freeze them individually.  This way he can take one out and defrost it in the microwave, toast an english muffin and he's on his way out the door.
 
Pick whatever ingredients you normally like in an omelette:  ham, cheese, tomatoes, peppers, onion, etc.
 
Beat up some eggs.
 
Spray the tin so the mini omelettes easily slip out.  I used a flat muffin tin made for muffin tops - the holes are larger and flatter so they fit perfectly on a english muffin.  If you don't have one of these, you could cook them in frying pan or a rectangle pan in the oven and then cut them up.  You could also use a regular muffin tin and just fill it halfway so it's not too thick.
 
Fill half the tin with the egg, add your ingredients.  Put a bit more egg on top and sprinkle with cheese.
 
Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes.
