These were easy to make and delicious! I made some with sausage and some vegetarian. The texture and flavor was perfect. I had so many compliments on these at Easter brunch! I do see why the recipe calls for unbleached muffin papers. I used bleached and they did stick a bit but I was able to easily remove the paper! Thanks for the high protein easy meal! Great as a leftover too.

Super delicious. I left off the grated cheese and baked them into a large rectangle parchment lined baking dish then cut them into 8 rectangles which I put into tortillas with a little cheese and warmed them to make breakfast burritos. They were also delicious on their own. Great for batch cooking breakfast or lunch for the week.

They taste good. I substituted mushrooms for the sausage since I was out. I used a nontstick pan with avocado oil. That absolutely did not work so will be ordering the muffin liners and will try again. Maybe that note could be added to #1.
