Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and place a rack in the center position.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. This will take around 5 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Spray a 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent the egg mixture from sticking.
  • Equally divide half of the sausage and half of the cheese into the prepared muffin tin. Pour the egg mixture into the cups about half way. Top with remaining sausage, remaining cheese, and olives.
  • Bake in the hot oven until the egg muffins are puffed up and lightly browned (about 20 to 25 minutes).
  • Serve warm, topped with cilantro, salsa, and a slice of avocado (optional, not included in nutritional breakdown).
