On my next batch, I added a spoonful of Ro*tel® tomatoes and bell peppers. Some other possibilities:  sriracha sauce, pesto, bacon bits, chives, etc. Be sure to check these after about 12-15 minutes of cooking for soft and delicious scrambled eggs. If you are carb counting and/or following a diet for diabetes, each cup contains about 1gm carb.

PRO TIPS:

  • Use a muffin liner to make clean up a breeze.
  • Choose lower sodium ham if desired.
  • Use a measuring cup to make pouring the eggs easier.
  • Store covered in the refrigerator and pop in the microwave to warm.

HOW TO MAKE HAM AND EGG CUPS

STEP 1:

Begin by lining your muffin tin with paper or foil liners. This will make cleanup much easier. Next line the cup with a slice of ham. Here I have used lower sodium ham.
