Breakfast Casserole Bites

A nice treat to add to an "on the go" breakfast or just as a mid-morning snack!!

From www.100daysofrealfood.com

Yields: 12 muffin sized casseroles

Ingredients:
  • 2 pieces of whole-wheat bread (sandwich size)
  • 8 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 oz grated cheese (we used Mozzarella)
  • 1/2 lb cooked and crumbled bacon or breakfast sausage
  • Foil muffin holders (optional - but will need to grease the tins without)
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350*F
  2. Distribute 12 foil muffin holders into muffin pan (or grease pan)
  3. Cut the whole-wheat bread into half inch squares and evenly distribute them on the between each muffin cup
  4.  In a mixing bowl or large measuring cup, thoroughly whisk together the eggs and milk.  Add salt and pepper as desired
  5. Evenly distribute the egg mixture into each muffin cup.  It's okay if bread pieces float to the top
  6. Sprinkle an equal amount of the grated cheese and the crumbled bacon or sausage into each muffin cup on top of the egg mixture
  7. Bake for 15 minutes or until eggs are set
  8. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate/freeze for another day

This was a first attempt picture.  Next time I think we may crumble the bacon a little better and cool the muffins a bit longer to see if it prevents them from falling in.
