Breakfast Muffins 

Breakfast Muffins are a favorite breakfast of mine. Why is that you ask?

Because you see I have a hard time eating breakfast in the morning. I have never been a big breakfast eater.

Having a week supply of Scrambled Egg Breakfast Muffins in the freezer makes it easier for me to make sure I am eating breakfast.

How hard can it be to pop a breakfast muffin in the microwave? It's not hard at all.

If I had to actually cook something for breakfast I would never eat breakfast!
