Make Ahead Egg Muffin Sandwiches

Looking for an easy way to make breakfast ahead of time?  Look no longer!  These sandwiches are easy to make and heat up.  
Ingredients:

English muffins
Eggs
Sliced Cheese
Meat if desired
Salt and Pepper
Jumbo Muffin pans--normal cupcake pans do not work as they end up too small

Procedure
Toast muffins in the broiler.
Spray jumbo muffin pans with spray oil
Place one egg in each muffin holder and gently prick with a fork to allow the yolk to spread a little.
Salt and pepper eggs
Bake at 375 until eggs are set.

Place eggs on toasted english muffins and top with a slice of cheese.
Wrap with aluminum foil if reheating in the oven. (large quantities)
Wrap with plastic wrap if reheating individually in the microwave.
Place them back in the muffin bag they came in, label, and freeze.  
If reheating in the oven, I like to turn the oven on the lowest setting of about 170 degrees a while before I'm ready to serve.  Then, whenever I get around to it, they are ready.  If I get distracted, they just keep warm rather than burning:)

Tips for making large batches.
Start with toasting all the muffins and set aside in proper pairs.
Start your first batch of eggs baking.
While eggs are baking, tear off appropriate-sized aluminum foil sheets and place in a line on counter.
Go ahead and place english muffins in the center of each aluminum foil sheet.
Place cheese slices on muffins.
When eggs are finished, place on muffins and start the next batch.  If you have a couple of pans, you can easily make a large batch of these.  Wrap them in the foil, place them back in the muffin bag they came in, label them and relax for breakfast!
