Turkey Sausage Egg Cups

These turkey sausage egg cups are a delicious solution to on the go breakfasts. The squash and turkey sausage make these taste like Fall!

I love these egg cups, because they the perfect solution to meal prep!  Double the base from my turkey and wild rice casserole and reserve half of it before adding the rice.  This is also the base for this recipe, and it will take you 5 minutes to throw together and into the oven.

What is also great about this recipe is that it uses healthy ingredients that are in season during the Fall.  The flavors of the butternut squash and the turkey sausage complement each other well.  The kale also adds a nice crunch to the egg bites!

How to Make the Best Turkey Sausage Egg Cups

While the full recipe instructions are available below, here are some tips to make the best egg bites this Fall.

• Muffin Tin: you will use a large muffin tin for your egg cups.  Be sure to spray each muffin cavity well with non-stick spray.  This is important to prevent the egg bites from sticking to the muffin tin.
• Eggs: you will use a combination of eggs and egg whites for this recipe.  Make sure you beat them together well.  This is important, because it will give the eggs the best texture for this recipe.  The air is trapped in the eggs and expands while cooking in the oven.
• Filling: the includes onions, turkey sausage, butternut squash, and kale.  This is the same base as my turkey and wild rice casserole.  If you double this base and set half of it aside, you will save tons of time prepping for the other meal!

This is a great breakfast that can either be used as a quick solution for on-the-go mornings, or for a nice brunch on the weekend!
