This is another recipe that my husband came up with. Creamy eggs filled with cooked bacon, onion, sweet peppers, jalapeno peppers, and topped with cheese. I usually cook up double the meat and veggies, then reserve half of it for a later time to make a quick weekday breakfast.
While that is cooking, finely dice onion, sweet pepper and jalapeno pepper.
When bacon is cooked, add the diced veggies and cook, without draining bacon grease.
Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.
When veggies are nearly cooked, add spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook until spinach is wilted.
Pour eggs over the top of the veggies and stir. Cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are nearly set up. Remove from heat. We like to eat these topped with shredded cheese and sometimes salsa.

This recipe works great in a mini muffin maker. This size works better for us since it is usually just the 2 of us, so we don’t really need 7 enormous biscuits between us. It also worked out great for Christmas morning when the oven temperature for the biscuits was 100 degrees warmer than the oven temperature for our egg casseroles. We really like how the edges come out kind of crunchy.
In a bowl, stir dry ingredients together.
Cut in butter to coarse crumb stage.
This can be covered and stored in the refrigerator or freezer at this point.
Add buttermilk. Stir just until blended.
Drop dough into Lodge biscuit pan, using 3 oz. scoop.
