  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, cook the pork sausage over medium heat until it is no longer pink. Break the sausage into crumbles as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the chopped onion, green pepper, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir in the cooked sausage and shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Spoon the mixture by 1/3 cupfuls into 12 greased muffin cups. Bake until a knife inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, which should take 20-25 minutes.
