Egg-celent

I don't know about you, but I'm definitely not a morning person.  Even though I have a routine, it takes me forever to get things done and moving until I've had some caffeine.  A part of that routine is eating breakfast.  They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and as far as I am concerned "they" are right.  Since I have to have something in the morning or else the rest of my day is shot.  One of my most recent recipe finds is making egg white muffins that could be made ahead and eaten during the week.  Thanks to Shana of ColorBlind for making up this very easy recipe which could be recreated with different toppings, and instead of egg whites it can certainly be made with whole eggs.  My hubby was all for it, so I made it a point to make sure I made a pan for him and another for me.  Here's how it went.
We picked the veggies: tomatoes, green pepper, onion, zucchini.
I sauted the veggies since we wanted to make sure that the onions didn't have such a strong taste.
Once the veggies were cooked but still with some crunch, I added my spice: Mrs. Dash.
The pan was sprayed with Pam, added the veggies in each tin making sure each had the same amount.
Baked it.
And voila!  Ready made little egg muffins for the week. 
I like to have mine on a whole wheat english muffin, shredded cheese, and salsa.
Just pop one or two in the microwave and breakfast is done.  One less thing for me to worry about in the AM.  Plus, I like it since it adds variety during the week.  Are you a morning person?  Do you eat breakfast?  Would this be something you'd try?
Hope you all have a great weekend!

I do love eggs, but I'm not sure how I feel about these... I'm more comfortable with a casserole involving a starch and the yolks, haha.

Yeah... morning? Ew.

These look great. My problem would be stopping after just eating one or two!
