On-the-Go Protein Power

By Momma Chef

These easy muffins are great for school mornings. Make them Sunday night, and serve them “on the go” during the week. Packed with protein, they will help keep kids’ hunger at bay so their brains stay in gear. You can use any variation of eggs, cheese, veggies, and meat that your kids like. My boys are partial to broccoli and sharp cheddar cheese. The muffins will last up to four days in the refrigerator. Just heat them in the microwave for 25 seconds when you’re ready for breakfast.
