In the heart ofwhitetail seasonorrifle elk, time is a precious commodity. I generally look for quick and easy meal prep. This situation is exactly where the inspiration for thisbreakfast recipewas born from. Easy preparation, saves well and is a tasty grab-and-go protein hit for those on the move.
This recipe easily doubles or triples for group situations. The egg muffins keep well in the fridge and can be eaten cold or rewarmed in the microwave. They are a staple for my colder hunting season breakfast options. But, there’s a big wildcard in this recipe when it comes to breakfast. Kimchi. But trust me, this spicy fermented cabbage adds and incredible tanginess to the recipe. It’s been a win every time I’ve made it for kimchi fans and dislikers, alike.
