The dogs were making their best “but mama, it has bacon…we needs some” faces this morning. It’s torture enough to make breakfast almost every morning and them only get crusts off of things that my husband doesn’t eat. But no bacon? It’s even Canadian Bacon. I have no idea why it’s called Canadian…pretty sure what I have was made in North Carolina. Regardless my four legged children were desperate. I didn’t give in.
Hands down Egg Mugs are my favorite go to breakfast! Super easy, super quick, very filling and I haven’t met an Egg Mug I haven’t liked. I have several egg mug recipes that I’ve borrowed, tweaked or turned into mine. This is just one of many!
Never made an Egg Mug? Start here with the Basic Egg Mug Recipe!
Canadian Bacon Egg Mug – 4PPV
Ingredients:
- One farm fresh egg
- 1 Laughing Cow Light Swiss wedge
- 3 slices Canadian Bacon
- Diced Mushrooms (I prefer baby bellas)
- Fresh kale and/or baby spinach
- Fresh ground black pepper
- Olive oil non stick spray
Spray mug, muffin cooker or crock bowl with non stick spray. Add everything but the egg and cook in microwave on high for 30 seconds
Crack open egg and add to bowl stirring gently but evenly into the other ingredients.
Return to microwave for up to 2 minutes on high. If you have a low wattage microwave or the mixture is still “loose” continue to microwave in 20 second increments until everything is firm but not hard. Add fresh black pepper. Let sit for one minute before trying to remove from bowl to move to bread or plate. The egg “muffin” should slide out easily. Use your imagination, these are a delicious and quick filling breakfast…enjoy!
