Breakfast On the Go: Egg Muffin Sandwiches

Most mornings my home is a bit chaotic as everyone tries to get ready for school; I'm busy making sure this happens!  Even when I try to wake everyone up a little earlier so we're not as rushed, we always seem to barely arrive at school on time.  Heavy on my mind as we are trying to get out of the house is making sure my kids have had breakfast. Even when I set out cereal and milk on the table, my girls often run out of time to sit down and eat.  If they haven't had breakfast about five minutes before we have to leave I will start making my go to protein packed breakfast - egg muffin sandwiches. These sandwiches are easy to prepare and can be made in under 2 minutes (really!!).  My girls and I love them!  They are similar to the ones you would normally buy at McDonalds or Starbucks except these are more healthier and a fraction of the cost. My secret weapon for making them so quickly is the microwave.  You can cook a perfectly soft scrambled egg disk in 40 seconds.  Earlier in the week I filmed my first cooking tutorial on how I make these sandwiches so you can get a good idea on how to prepare these savory and healthy breakfast egg muffins for your own family.  Once you make one, you'll wonder why you haven't made it this way before.  And you'll also love the fact that there is very little clean up.  Enjoy! **As a side note regarding the video, you'll notice it looks like I used a ton of salt.  I just want you to know that my husband filled our salt shaker with kosher salt which does not pour out of our shaker very well.  In fact, you have to shake it like crazy for small trace amounts of salt to come out. Got a favorite grab and go breakfast idea?  Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
