    I have made these before, and even after spraying the pan, I had to throw the pan out because I couldn't get the egg off it! They taste fantastic though!

    I didn't have any problem cleaning the large muffin pans, just soaked them for awhile and they cleaned up easy. The mini muffin pan required a little more attention, but that was because the pan was too big to soak in the sink, but I got it clean eventually.

    A silicone pan would prevent the sticking issue. Luckily I have one since I'm making these tonight.

    I had that problem too, I use paper cups, spray them really well and they peel right off and keeps my muffin pan clean, but I think I may treat myself to a silicone pan.

    I think I would miss the browning that happens when cooked directly in the pan.

    Please don't hate me, but my omelettes are always fabulous. They are about the only things I can cook though!
    I am looking forward to giving these muffins a try, although they are the same ingredients as an omelette, in my head they different! :# I'm crazy I know :(
    um... and you'll be revealing your secret ..when? ;)

    So, I can make these and freeze them then take them to work, reheat them in the microwave for breakfast?

    I'm out of milk :cry: will that pose a problem or can I sub in water? I don't typically use milk when I make scrambled eggs but I know this is different. How do you think it'd turn out?

    I should wait to make them until I get milk? Or

    Absolutely. I froze a dozen of them and they reheat well. I wrap it in a paper towel and microwave on high for 90 seconds.

    Oh man, I made these this morning and they were great. I had leftover black beans and quinoa from last night so I put that in, wasn't sure it would work but it did. I used 2 eggs, about 1/4 cup quinoa and 1/3 cup black beans, a cup or so of broccoli, 20 grams of cheddar cheese, and some salt, pepper, garlic powder, italian herbs and cayenne as seasoning. I ate them with cottage cheese and some ketchup when done. They probably would have been even better with onions and garlic. I had planned to use all these ingredients to make an omelet anyway, but this made 3 pretty big muffins, which was awesome. Gotta try next time with mushrooms and maybe sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, etc I just bought more vegetables to make them again asap, thanks for posting!

    I make a similar recipe. They freeze well.
    Sometimes I make them with 1/2 slice of bacon. You just wrap the bacon around the muffin cup (I microwave it for about 20 seconds first, we like our bacon crisp) then fill with the egg/veggie mixture. No need to spray the cups when using the bacon.

    This plus this recipe is freaking genius!!
