Make These Chicken Fajitas Breakfast Egg Muffins

I always start by gathering all of the ingredients needed in a recipe and weighing and measuring everything before I start to cook or bake. This part is really important and key in keeping everything organized.


To make these chicken fajitas breakfast egg muffins you start by positioning your oven rack in the center of the oven and grease 2x standard 12 cup muffin pans. This recipe yields 18 muffins.

Then you lightly beat the eggs in a large bowl and then add in all of the remaining ingredients until combined.

Pour or scoop the mixture into the muffin cups filling them about 3/4.

Bake for 14-15 minutes or until set and the top is lightly golden brown.

Run a knife along the sides of the muffins to remove from the pan.
