"After enjoying scrambled egg muffins at a local restaurant, I came up with this version that my husband likes even better," writes Cathy Larkins of Marshfield, Missouri. They're pretty, hearty and fun to serve, too.

This was so easy and an absolutely perfect base recipe. Probably good to note that when something says "coated with cooking spray" they mean "spray the ever loving $#!t out of it and then some" which is what I did after reading other folks reviews. I had no problems getting mine out with just some coaxing from a thin spatula.

While they aren't as pretty as the picture they are tasty and have plenty of room for improvisation based on what you like, want, or have to throw into them. I used a full tube Smart Life's "Gimme Lean Sausage" (a vegetarian product), half an onion, and accidentally forgot the cheese (I was hungry and in a hurry). These are like omlettes without the stress of it sticking to the pan or everyone else getting to eat before you do because you can only make one at a time. They also seem like they'll be great to pop in the freezer and saved for a lazy weekend or a busy one. :)

These were okay, but nothing too special. I think they'd have been better with more cheese. As is, they were kind of dry. I don't plan on making these again. I'd rather eat scrambled eggs with some cheese on top.

I love to try healthy meals and this one caught my eye. I thought the onion overpowered the rest of the flavors so will cut that in half next time. I definetly will try some of the ideas mentioned in other reviews (bacon, tomatoes, chorizo) as I agree this is a good base recipe where you can add what you like.

I actually intended to add some bacon pieces with the sausage but forgot, so made the recipe "as is". I agree that it can be a base for making several different ways. Good recipe.

These were just so-so to us. I used bacon instead of sausage. Still just nothing special.

Very easy! I used egg whites, bacon instead of sausage and added asparagus and they were very yummy!

Substituted soyriso (vegetarian) for the pork. Sprayed the muffin pan, but they still stuck and we had to cut them out.
