Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) lean ground pork sausage
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup (115g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) cracked black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp (2g) garlic powder

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground sausage until it is mahogany-colored and fully cooked through. Drain the excess fat. Lightly grease your muffin tin with cooking spray.
  2. Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of cooked sausage into each muffin cup. Use the back of the spoon to press the meat firmly against the bottom and up the sides, creating a small cup or nest.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until the mixture is aerated and uniform. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Carefully pour the egg mixture into each sausage cup, filling them about 3/4 of the way to the top. Bake for 18–22 minutes until the centers are set and the tops have a light golden hue.
