How much spare time do you have to cook? If you’re as busy as I am, the answer is probably between “enough time to microwave something” and “I might have to starve.”
Thankfully, it only takes a few hours of one day and a couple muffin tins to make meals for almost the entire week. If I’m running behind one morning, I can easily take muffins to the office and heat them up in under a minute. Here are some recipes to get you started:
Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Cups
- 12 eggs
- salt and pepper
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 12 breakfast sausage links
- 1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Whisk eggs, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until beaten.
- Divide eggs and onion evenly between each cup.
- Crumble one sausage link into each cup.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- After 20 minutes of baking, sprinkle each cup with cheese.
- Let them sit for 5 minutes and remove with a silicon spatula.
Barbecue with Corn Biscuit Cups
- 1 lb of barbecued meat
- 2 cans of corn biscuits
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Turn muffin pan cavity-side down and shape a biscuit over each cavity.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Take biscuits off of pan.
- Reduce heat to 400 degrees.
- Turn the pan over and place one biscuit in each cup.
- Divide barbecue meat evenly between biscuits and sprinkle with red onion and cheese.
- Bake for an additional 5-7 minutes.
