These little omelets are my family's latest favorite breakfast item and snack. They are very simple and quick to make, and the best part for me is that making a large batch can easily be stored in ziploc bags in the fridge for up to 5 days (these reheat very well for 30 seconds in the microwave). All my kids are fans of scrambled eggs, but getting them to eat meat and different veggies is definitely always a challenge for me. With that said though, the boys will eat whatever I sneak into these muffin omelets, and so I am taking advantage.My recipe I am sharing here with you is a ham & cheese muffin omelet because that is truly our favorite kind, however, you can substitute with whatever your family loves best OR just depending on whatever's in your fridge - feel free to use any other cooked meat for this (like sausage or bacon or any other deli meat) and add in different veggies (like spinach, onion, bell peppers) or cheeses. I usually make these on the weekend, so we have plenty for a few breakfasts throughout the week or just to grab as a snack. And if you want to get the kids involved in the actual cooking, you can just pour the egg & cream mixture into the muffin tins and have the kids throw in their favorite omelet ingredients into each cup in the muffin pan instead - either way works!
Thank you to our partners at Farmland Fresh Dairies, who have shared their freshest eggs and heavy cream with our family for this recipe!
