Recipe type: Breakfast, Brunch

Cuisine: Paleo, Whole30, Low Carb

Serves: 12 servings

Ingredients

• ¾ lb sweet Italian sausage, casings removed, no added sugar

• 2 cloves garlic, minced*

• dash of crushed red pepper

• ⅔ cup chopped sun dried tomatoes {soften first by soaking if too hard}

• 2 tsp Italian seasoning blend

• 1 tsp onion powder

• 9 eggs

• ¼ tsp fine grain sea salt

• 1-2 tsp coconut oil for cooking the sausage, plus extra for greasing muffin cups

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and grease a 12 cup muffin tin well with coconut oil to prevent sticking.

2. Heat a medium or large skillet over medium heat and add 1-2 tsp coconut oil to the skillet. Add the sausage and a dash of crushed red pepper, and break up lumps of sausage with a wooden spoon. If using the garlic*, add it to the pan when the sausage is halfway browned

3. Continue to cook and stir. Once the sausage is nearly fully browned, add the chopped sundried tomatoes and stir into the mixture. Cook another minute, then remove from heat and set aside.

4. In a very large bowl, whisk together the eggs, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and salt. Then, pour the entire sausage mixture into the eggs and combine.

5. Fill muffin cups ¾ of the way to the top (they'll rise over the cups, which is fine) until the mixture is used up (I made 12) and bake in the preheated oven about 15 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the muffins just begin to brown.

6. Remove from oven and let cool a few minutes before serving. If making ahead, you can refrigerated them in a sealed container for up to 5 days. Enjoy!

My husband and I are starting today also. 

 

I would suggest that you simply tell yourself that you will stick to this. If you say you 'hope' to then you are giving yourself an out. Don't do that...you can and will be successful.

my first day too! I was up till after midnight prepping and cooking also! that part of it sucks, but I keep telling myself I'm important enough to do it! I always look for crock pot recipes too! also make sure u have emergency quick stuff....I make sure I have a batch of mayo and some cans of tuna on hand cuz if I have to I can pull it together quick. frozen cooked shrimp is also a lifesaver...GOOD luck!

[Mhanson6]

thanks i printed off the mayo recipe today so that way I can make it because I didn't think of having tuna because of the mayo, but than once I saw the home made recipe I was like why not.  Good Luck to you too!

I started my 2nd Whole 30 today too!  My husband started his first as well.  I don't do tuna, but be careful.  A lot of popular brands contain soy.

I am going to try the Pizza Muffin recipe next week - looks delicious. I work two jobs too and my day starts at 3:45 am so a quick and easy breakfast helps. I find prepping food for the week on Saturday and Sunday makes a huge difference...also make a double batch of at least one thing that freezes well so you end up with an assortment of lunches and dinners that you can just pull out and microwave on those days when prepping didn't happen or a recipe just fails (happens to me anyway where something new is just nasty). You can do this!
