  1. Made these this morning. Uncomplicated, delicious, with a pretty final presentation! I especially loved having the time while the cups were baking to prep our plates with the rest of our breakfast (avocado, fruit, etc) and then having all the eggs/toast being done at the same time so all could eat together. These are so easy to modify for individual tastes. Definitely will be a regular breakfast rotation in our house!
