We know that you will want to add this flavorful egg muffin to the top of your meal prep and planning list for the week, because not only is it uncomplicated to bake, you get to add your favorite ingredients too.
Chances are good that free-range eggs are always in stock in your Paleo pantry as they are extremely versatile and can be cooked up at a starving moment's notice, perfect for filling in any energy gaps that pop up during the day.
Sweet potato pancakes with fresh strawberries and blueberries, poached egg optional, make for a nice weekend breakfast when you have time to relax with a steaming mug of coffee or herbal tea by your side, but weekdays call for different measures.
