Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1 cup diced bell peppers (any color)

- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Sandwich Assembly
- 8 English muffins, split in half
- 8 slices of cooked bacon (optional)
- Butter or cooking spray for greasing
Instructions
- Prepare Eggs: In a large mixing bowl, crack the 8 large eggs, ensuring no shell fragments remain.
- Add Milk: Pour in 1 cup of milk to create a fluffy, creamy texture.
- Mix Eggs and Milk: Whisk together until the mixture is uniform in color and no streaks remain.
- Add Fillings: Stir in 1 cup shredded cheese, 1 cup diced bell peppers, and the cooked ham or sausage if using.
- Season: Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, adjusting to taste.
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
- Grease Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Pour Egg Mixture: Evenly spread the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, ensuring it is level for even cooking.
- Bake: Bake the egg mixture in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until fully set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool and Portion: Allow the baked egg mixture to cool completely before cutting into 8 equal squares to fit the English muffins.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place each egg square onto the bottom half of an English muffin, add a slice of cooked bacon if desired, then top with the other muffin half.
- Freeze for Later: Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap or foil and store in the freezer for quick breakfast options.
- Reheat to Serve: When ready to eat, thaw the sandwich overnight in the refrigerator and reheat in a microwave or oven until hot.
