Tasty Tuesdays: Healthy Egg McMuffins

 

Continuing on with our Tasty Tuesdays, I want to introduce you to a very delicious recipe. I am in love with Egg McMuffins, but not with their calories. This recipe is much healthier and still just as delicious. They are super easy to put together and make ahead for later! Great for company and a grab and go breakfast!
