Broccoli Cheddar Ham Egg Muffins

February 21, 2019 by Audra's Appetite 2 Comments

Looking for a healthy, on-the-go breakfast recipe that is savory instead of sweet and protein-packed? You found the right recipe! These broccoli cheddar ham egg muffins require just a few minutes of hand’s on time to prep, and are perfect to meal-prep on the weekends to have as part of an easy, delicious, and satisfying breakfast during the busy work week. Plus, they only contain 5 main ingredients plus a few spices!

I don’t know about you, but I definitely don’t have the time during the week to make eggs and “weekend type” breakfasts. I love breakfast, but more often than not I’m packing something to go to eat at work. These broccoli cheddar ham egg muffins can help the transition from leisurely weekend breakfasts or brunch to work day mornings just a little bit better! ?

Healthy Meal-Prep Breakfast Recipes

Now don’t get me wrong, I LOVE sweet breakfasts. Goodness, looking back through some of the breakfast archives makes me realize it’s been way too long since I’ve made some of these meal-prep breakfast recipes!

Breakfast Cookies:

Carrot Cake Breakfast Cookies

Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Breakfast Cookies

Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Granola Bars/Bites:

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip No Bake Granola Bars

Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Dough Bites

And this doesn’t even begin to cover oatmeal and muffin recipes! Clearly, I have a thing for breakfast (and baking). ?

I love broccoli and cheddar together, and the salty ham is a delicious addition. These broccoli cheddar ham egg muffin cups are also perfectly portioned and easy for on-the-go!

I love having a couple of these egg muffins paired with fruit and yogurt or toast, etc. during the weekdays.

Anyways, moving on how to make these egg muffins! I’ve made many different varieties of egg muffins over the years, and the great thing is that they are SUPER customizable based on your preferences and what you have on hand!

Ingredients and Substitution Ideas:

Broccoli

Feel free to use pretty much any veggie here: chopped spinach, bell peppers, onion, carrots, tomatoes, etc.!

Ham

If you want these egg muffins to be vegetarian, feel free to omit and add extra veggies instead. Bacon or chicken sausage would also be delicious. (I like using a pre-cooked meat here such as ham/chicken sausage to save time).

Cheddar cheese

I love using sharp cheddar in this recipe for a stronger flavor, and I find it pairs so well with the ham and broccoli (classic). But white cheddar, gouda, provolone, swiss, mozzarella, feta, etc. would all be great too! Use your favorite cheese.

Eggs

Well, you can’t really make egg muffins without eggs……………….?‍♀️?

Milk

I used 2% dairy milk, but any type of milk should work!

Hope you love this recipe too! ?
