Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!
These baked egg ham and cheese cups are such a healthy make-ahead keto breakfast idea that’ll make your mornings run a little smoother! Just grab a muffin tin and fill it with ham, eggs, cheese, and any veggies you’d like. Enjoy them right away or as a delicious and easy to re-heat breakfast option later!
