Spicy Egg Muffins

Prepare for a flavour explosion with these Spicy Egg Muffins! This bite-sized breakfast packs a spicy punch and is super easy to whip up.

Everything tastes better when you add cheese! I love using cheese in my recipes to add extra flavour and loads of ooey gooeyness! Armstrong Cheese, a favourite cheese brand of mine, recently came out with three new delicious cheese flavours: Garlic and Herb, Havarti and Monterey Jack with Jalapeno. Yum!

If you aren’t yet acquainted with Armstrong Cheese, let me fill you in. They are a Canadian heritage brand with roots in British Columbia dating back all the way to 1902. Their cheese is naturally aged just like the way of the cheese artisans from times long ago.

I couldn’t wait to try out one of the new flavours in a recipe. I selected Monterey Jack with Jalapeno because I’m a spicy lovin’ gal and created these mouthwatering Spicy Egg Muffins. Prepare for a flavour explosion, folks.

    The first step is to cook the sausages and veggies. You’ll want the sausage to be browned and the veggies soft and tender. It smells amazing and I could have stopped and eaten it then and there. Don’t worry, I had willpower and only snuck a few bites. I had to make sure the flavouring was right!

    My family was actually fighting over them. We loved them. I tried to use the reasoning that I needed to have a few extras because it was my recipe I’d be sharing on my blog. I don’t think that excuse went over too well because I was met with a few dirty looks.
