These DIY Just Crack an Egg Cups are a homemade version of the store bought cups. The nutrition is better than store bought and they're just pennies to make! Perfect for meal prep–make a bunch of them, freeze, then crack an egg into the ingredients and microwave for a quick breakfast!
If you're planning to make any of these cups with turkey sausage, I highly recommend making this homemade savory turkey sausage. It requires little more than browning your ground turkey and is so much healthier than any store bought ground turkey sausage that you can find.
Dice and assemble your ingredients, then place into zipper bags. If you'd rather use another food safe and microwave safe container, be sure to use a little cooking spray first so they clean up nicely.
Store your cups in the fridge or freezer. If storing in the fridge, make sure they're well covered with lids or even plastic wrap.
When you're ready to cook these, just add an egg (or two) to them.
Stir it up well.
Place the microwave safe mug, bowl, or mason jar into the microwave and follow these guidelines:
For two eggs: Place in microwave and cook for 1:30, stir if needed, then cook for another 1:3Add 30 seconds at a time if your scrambles aren't cooked through.
For one egg: Place in microwave and cook for 1 minute, stir if needed, then cook for 1 more minute. Add 30 seconds at a time if your scrambles aren't cooked through.
You're looking for the dark line of yellow to be gone. Of course, this is easier to see in a mason jar. When using a coffee mug, that's where the stirring comes in handy.
Note: Please see post for instructions in cooking from frozen.
