I found out that you can cook eggs and freeze them!! Better yet that you can cook eggs, in a muffin pan, in the OVEN!!
So how easy is making breakfast sandwiches ahead of time? Making them at home, from scratch is even more healthy.
To give it a first try, I bought store bought English muffins. I need to experiment how to freeze biscuits so i can make those from scratch and how to make English muffins from scratch.
Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches
INGREDIENTS
1 dozen eggs
1 lb bacon -or- 1 lb breakfast sausage
1 1/2 -2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 doz english muffins
plastic wrap
freezer bags
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Using a muffin tin, spray/butter each cup. Either break each egg into each cup or scramble first and ladle in equal parts into each cup. I added about 1/3 cup water to the eggs to make them more fluffy.
Stick these in a 350 degree oven for about 10-15 minutes. Inspite of the spray butter I used (not a fan of Pam) they left a lot of reside behind on the pan. I found a scrubby at Walmart for less than $3 and it worked great. Fit nicely into the cups and got the entire sides!
2. Cut each bacon slice in half and fry in oven, microwave or oven until crisp.
3. Place muffins on a cookie sheet and toast in oven until toasted through. Add cheese to one half or both sides, up to you and put back into oven until melted.
4. Once muffins, eggs and bacon are cooked put sandwiches together. One muffin, two
half slices bacon or one sausage patty. Let cool, wrap in plastic wrap and place
in freezer bag. Freeze until ready to serve.
5. To heat and eat, remove all plastic wrap. Wrap sandwich in paper towel and microwave OR put on cookie sheet and put in preheated 350 oven for 25mins. I will edit the time for microwaving from freezing. I was using mine the next day so I just refrigerated them and 30 secs was a great temperature for the kids.
You can choose to save some time and make more eggs or bacon. After cooled I put the eggs into a freezer bag and into the freezer for later use. I layered the bacon onto papertowels and put into a plastic bag. My very own and much cheaper premade, ready to heat bacon! I'm looking forward to some fast BLT's!
This was a WIN, WIN, WIN, WIN!! None of the kids had any issues with any part of it!!!!
