Ingredients
  

1 package (12 oz) breakfast sausage links or patties

6 large eggs

1/2 cup milk

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup diced bell peppers (any color)

1/4 cup chopped green onions

Salt and pepper, to taste

Cooking spray or muffin tin liners

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage links or patties until fully cooked. If using links, slice them into small bite-sized pieces after cooking. Drain any excess fat and set aside.

      Prepare the Muffin Tin: Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray or line it with muffin liners for easy removal.

        Whisk the Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined and frothy.

          Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked sausage, cheddar cheese, diced bell peppers, and green onions to the egg mixture. Stir gently until everything is evenly incorporated.

            Fill the Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters of the way full.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg cups are set and lightly golden on top.

                Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the muffin tin from the oven. Let the sausage egg cups cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the tin. Serve warm or store in the refrigerator for quick breakfasts throughout the week.
