-
6 large eggs

½ cup cooked bacon, chopped (about 4–5 strips)
-
½ cup shredded cheese (optional* – cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan)
-
2 tbsp cream cheese or heavy cream (adds fluffiness; optional)
-
Salt to taste

Optional: crumbled sausage, cooked ground beef, or egg whites for texture
🧀 *To keep strictly zero carb, omit cheese or use aged Parmesan (0g carbs per serving).
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with greased silicone liners or use a nonstick pan. -

Cook bacon until crisp, then chop into small bits. Set aside. -

In a bowl, whisk together:-
6 eggs

(Optional) 2 tbsp cream cheese or heavy cream

Fill Muffin Tins:

Bake:

Cool Slightly & Serve:
Let them cool for a few minutes — they’ll firm up as they rest. Store leftovers in the fridge for easy grab-and-go meals.
