Breakfast quickly falls into a rut, for me. Toast, eggs, sausage... pancakes... biscuits and gravy...
Great food, of course, but once in a while I like to switch it up. So this week, I tried my hand at inventing some tasty little breakfast tarts! Now, 'tarts' may be a bit misleading, since they don't have a crumbly, homemade crust. But I hope you forgive me when you realize how simple and tasty these are. 🙂
Take a package of wonton wrappers, place one in each muffin cup. I gave my muffin tin a light spray of cooking spray - to keep the cheese from sticking, and give it a bit of that fried texture.
They will look like they aren't big enough - not coming up the sides very far - but they will be fine, no worries!
Then you add the eggs and sausage, topping with a small slice (or spoonful of shredded) cheddar cheese. I think swiss would be good, too! I used about a tablespoon each of eggs and sausage.
Slide it in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, depending how crispy you like your crusts. Serve with fruit or juice. Perfect for little hands to grab and eat on the way to school! (not messy at all)
What are you serving for breakfast, these days? I'm always open to new ideas! 🙂

That looks great! I'm the same way with breakfast. It's the same from week to week. Add muffins, scones, and burritos to your list. And well, that sums up ours. These look fun and easy!
Thanks for sharing!
Burritos are good! I should make them more... I can't eat the bought tortillas very well, and I rarely feel like making them in the morning! 😀
