    and make little baskets.

    THIS is such a genius idea, and fool proof, and seems so versatile! I’m afraid the egg will stick, despite spraying the pam, OR will become too greasy from the pam, or am I just over obsessing 🙂

      Amber trust me – just lightly spray with Pam and the muffins won’t stick. I take a plastic knife and light cut around the edges of the muffin cup to help the eggs out. I have not had a problem with them sticking. I hope that helps.

    These are so great! I make eggs for dinner fairly regularly but I forget to make up some quiche things like this for quick grabbing. I’d like to bring one for lunch with my salad and heat it up at work.
