On the Go Breakfast Biscuits

Yesterday, I raved about my new found morning meal and promised a recipe.  So, here it is as promised 😉

On the Go Breakfast Biscuits (adapted from Busy Girl Healthy Life)

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup egg whites
  • 1/3 cup egg beaters
  • 1/2 cup fat free or low fat cottage cheese
  • 1 cup lowfat shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 4 Morning Star Farms hot and spicy breakfast “sausage” patties, chopped
  • 1/2 cup white onion
  • 1/2 cup almond meal
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  In a large bowl, combine the egg whites, egg beaters, and both cheeses.  Pour olive oil into skillet over medium heat.  Cook the sausage and the onion for about 2 minutes until the onions are tender and the sausage is heated through.

Combine the sausage and onion mixture, the egg mixture, and the remaining ingredients all together.

Spray a mini muffin tin and pour the egg mixture into 20 of the tins.  Place into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan.  Enjoy!

*These are great to store in the fridge for quick breakfasts, either hot or cold, and they would probably be good with bacon…or faux bacon 😉
