Instructions (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly coat a 6-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
Step 2: Chop Your Veggies
Dice your bell peppers and mushrooms into small, uniform pieces. You can also prep extra and refrigerate for later in the week.
Step 3: Mix Eggs and Seasoning
In a large mixing bowl, crack the 6 large eggs. Whisk them together until the yolks and whites are fully blended. Add in Everything Bagel seasoning, and stir to combine.
Step 4: Combine Veggies
Add the chopped bell peppers and mushrooms into the egg mixture. Mix gently so that the vegetables are evenly distributed.
Step 5: Pour into Muffin Tins
Evenly pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ of the way full. If using cheese, place a small square of Velveeta on top of each muffin before baking.
Step 6: Bake
Place the muffin tin into your preheated oven. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and the tops are slightly golden. Remove and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Step 7: Toast the Muffins
While the eggs bake, split and toast the Light Multigrain English Muffins. You can use a toaster or oven broiler.
Step 8: Assemble
Place a slice of Canadian bacon on the bottom half of the toasted English muffin. Top with a freshly baked egg muffin and the top half of the muffin. If desired, add a cheese slice for 1 extra SmartPoint.
Meal Prep & Storage
- Fridge: Store egg muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Freezer: Freeze individual muffins in zip-lock bags for up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave for 60–90 seconds.
- On-the-go: Wrap individually and reheat in the morning for a grab-and-go breakfast sandwich.

Helpful Tips for Success
- Use silicone liners to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Customize the veggies based on what you love—spinach, tomatoes, onions, or zucchini all work well.
- Double the batch if you want breakfast covered for the whole week or to share with family.
- Add heat by mixing in diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
- Reheat gently to preserve texture. Microwave at 70% power or use a toaster oven.
Smart Swaps to Reduce Points Even Further
- Skip the muffin and eat the egg and bacon combo on a bed of greens (0 points)
- Use egg whites instead of whole eggs if you want to cut down fat or cholesterol
- Use WW-friendly bread or 1-point tortillas for variety
- Bulk up with veggies – volume without points!
Why Canadian Bacon?
Canadian bacon is a leaner cut of pork and provides about 10g of protein per slice, while remaining low in fat and SmartPoints. It’s a healthier alternative to traditional sausage or bacon and adds a smoky flavor that pairs beautifully with eggs and vegetables.
