These Low-Calorie Egg Cups are a great way to start off your day (or your kids’ day) with a nutritious and low-calorie breakfast option! I like to make a couple of batches of these and have in the fridge ready to grab and go on busy days!

Over the last couple of months, I’ve really been trying to jump back into healthy eating and get myself back on track! After all, it is only a couple of weeks away from summer shorts and swimsuit weather!  Ahhhh!

Something that I’ve found that really helps me do this is to start off the day on the right foot! If I start out eating donuts and muffins, I’m just setting myself up for failure but if I make something like these Low-Calorie Egg Cups I know that my day is will be awesome! I love to have these with our Strawberry Lemonade, too!

Did you guys see the Lose Weight, Gain Energy course? This recipe is going to fit perfectly into the course, so if you’re enrolled in it, be sure to save this recipe! If you’re not in the course, be sure to stop by and check it out!  It’s how my husband was able to lose 30+ pounds in 6 weeks!

Don’t these look delicious? You can change them up a little too by adding some fresh-made Pico de Gallo or salsa or even your favorite breakfast meat like bacon, sausage or ham.  Just know that these changes will slightly change the calories in each egg cup.
