Ingredients
Scale
- 12 English muffins
- 12 large eggs
- 12 slices cheddar cheese
- 12 slices turkey bacon or sausage patties
- Butter or cooking spray
Instructions
- Cook eggs: Whisk eggs in a large bowl. Pour the mixture into a large, lightly greased baking dish (9×13 inch works well). Bake at 350°F (175°C) until set, about 15-20 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut into 12 equal squares or shapes matching the muffin size.
- Cook meat: Cook turkey bacon or sausage patties according to package directions. Drain excess fat.
- Toast muffins: Split the English muffins in half. Lightly toast them.
- Assemble sandwiches: Place one egg piece and one slice of cheese on the bottom half of each muffin. Top with one piece of cooked meat. Place the top half of the muffin on top.
- Wrap for storage: Wrap each assembled sandwich tightly in plastic wrap, then wrap again in aluminum foil.
- Freeze: Place wrapped sandwiches in a large freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to one month.
- Reheat: When ready to eat, remove the plastic wrap but leave the foil on. Microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes, or until heated through. For a crispier texture, finish in a toaster oven for a few minutes after microwaving.
