Breakfast Pizza Egg Bites

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 pound turkey Italian sausage
• 1/2 yellow onion, minced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup pizza sauce
• 1 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 16-18 turkey pepperoni slices
• 6 eggs
• 4 egg whites

DIRECTIONS 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 muffin tins with 16-18 silicone muffin liners and spray with coconut oil spray to make sure nothing sticks.
2. In a pan over medium heat, cook Italian sausage with onion and garlic, breaking the sausage in to small pieces, until browned and cooked through.
3. Add Italian sausage to a large bowl, add pizza sauce, basil, salt and pepper. Mix to combined. Then add eggs in to the bowl and mix to combined one last time.
4. Pour mixture into 16-18 cups leaving a little room in the muffin cup since the eggs will puff up while they cook. Top each muffin cup with a pepperoni slice then place in the oven to bake for 30-35 minutes, until cooked through in the middle.

COACH KRISTA TIP

This recipe should make between 16-18 cups. If it makes 16, then 4 is a serving. These are full sized muffin tins, however you could also use mini muffin tins. If 4 is too many for a serving, than eat less and adjust the nutritional info accordingly!
