What To Serve With Veggie Omelet Cups
These cups are ideal for the kids or the adult who is running out the door. But if you have the luxury of sitting down and preparing something more substantial, you can pair these egg muffins with any number of dishes. Here are some suggestions:
Fruit & Nut Bowl: You’ve got the eggs and veggies covered, now add the oats, which, when powered up with banana, blueberries, raspberries, almonds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon, flaxseed, and honey, is a fantastic way to start the day.
Bacon/Sausage: Add protein by grilling up some meat in the form of breakfast staples bacon and/or sausage.
Pancakes/French Toast: Not only would these omelet cups go well beside French toast or Gingerbread Pancakes with Cinnamon & Brown Sugar Syrup, you could go crazy and put them ON TOP of the pancakes or French toast!
Crepes/Croissant: Speaking of ‘French’, you could whip up some light crepes as featured in this recipe for Banana Split Crepes or grab a croissant and pretend you’re sitting along the Cote d’Azur by pairing the eggs with these French delectables.
Grits/Hash Browns: Pair the eggs with potato for a satisfying breakfast.
FAQs
You probably overfilled each cup. The egg will expand when baking so leave space to accommodate this.
Sounds like you overcooked them. Keep an eye on the eggs while in the oven and take them out as soon as they set and are lightly browned on top.
Cheddar, feta, goat, Swiss, Parmesan… I could go on. It really depends on your taste buds.
How To Store Veggie Omelet Cups
Let the eggs cool completely. Place them in an airtight container and then in the fridge where they should last for 4 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. To reheat, let the omelet cups thaw completely in the fridge. Bake them in the oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. You can also microwave each omelet cup for 1-2 minutes.

I would serve these veggie cups with a fruit salad for brunch.
I would make these for Christmas morning breakfast along with bacon or sausage.
Perfect for a Sunday brunch
My family is so rushed in the morning that I never have time to make a good breakfast. I love how I can make these ahead and then pop them in the microwave throughout the week.
I would suggest using muffin papers because mine stuck like crazy. They looked great while cooking but a disaster tracking them out.
Very disappointed.
Thanks for the suggestion Viviane, have you used cooking spray? They come out great every time and I do not use muffin papers.
