  • Stir in bell pepper, sausage, spinach, and cheddar cheese.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • Use pre-cooked sausage to save time, or swap in diced ham, bacon, or a meat-free alternative.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before storing to avoid condensation in the container.
  • They’re great cold, but I like giving them a quick zap in the microwave or a warm-up in the toaster oven for the best texture.
