EGG & QUINOA BREAKFAST MUFFINS
Since we have started doing the 80 Day Obsession workout program, we needed to start each morning with a pre-workout meal prior to that early morning workout as part of our Early Bird Club that starts online at 5AM! SO, I needed to get something that I could heat up quickly as soon as I get up in order to have it digest somewhat before working out. ENTER THE EGG CUP! I look forward to 2 of these ever single morning prior to my workouts and they fuel me in order to have the energy to make it through the longer workouts that 80 Day Obsession features. Hope you ENJOY these awesome cups! Let us know what you think.
