Scrambled egg muffins

I am the kind of person who needs variety when it comes to food. For the last year I have been eating a variation of scrambled egg whites with veggies, cheese and turkey or ham. I credit it to part of my weight loss.. I really believe starting my day out eating healthy determines how I eat and FEEL the rest of the day! I've recently started making these "egg muffins". They are so easy and SO yummy!! PLUS I can take a couple and eat them in the car.. which is awesome cause I am in a crazy hurried rush every morning these days!! I found this particular recipe and changed it up but you can put whatever you want in them! That's the beauty! So many variations! Hope you enjoy!
P.S. I've read you can freeze them and take them out as needed but I haven't tried it yet!

Ingredients:
1/2 pound bulk pork sausage or substitute with diced ham or turkey and eyeball it:)
12 eggs ( I do half egg whites myself )
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped red pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup shredded Cheese.. I use whatever I have on hand! This time it was mozzarella! Yum:))

Directions:
In a skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. In a bowl, beat eggs, Add onion, green pepper, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir in sausage and cheese. Or whatever meat you prefer.
Spoon by 1/3 cupfuls into greased muffin cups. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, take out and sprinkle more cheese on top, pop bake in the oven till cheese is melted and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
