Buffalo Chicken Egg Muffins

Egg muffins are a great solution for a quick breakfast. We prepare these ahead of time and just heat them up in the morning. We use Tessemae’s mild hot sauce for these muffins. The only ingredients are Olive Oil, Organic Lemons, Vinegar, Cayenne Peppers, Organic Garlic, Mustard (filtered water, spices), and Sea Salt.

This recipe comes from the The 21-Day Sugar Detox book by Diane Sanfilippo. The only modification I would make is to add more wing sauce to the egg mixture and chicken if you want a more authentic wing taste.
