You now have a reason to always have some bacon cooked and ready to crumble 😉

I prefer to bake bacon in batches, and yes…I freeze it after it’s been baked. (Pat/drain it well and let it cool completely before freezing.)

This loaded potato is my favorite – because it’s loaded…with flavor and it will hold well you until lunch!

Mix it all up, microwave for a few minutes, then dig that fork right on into the mug. (Great for breakfasting on your commute!)

You can make these in so many ways – just egg and sausage and cheese. Just eggs and bacon. Just potato and eggs. Possibilities are almost endless.

Let me know what you try and how you like this omelet in a mug concept!!! <3

    Add some chopped baby or tender greens, or chopped broccoli or asparagus cooked with onion n garlic. Healthy, yum.
    Maybe 1/2c to each mug.
