Daily life can be really chaotic for a busy lifestyle. And for a lot of people, constant chaos means forgetting to eat or being too busy to break for a bite to eat. I mean, how many times have you rushed to get the kids ready for school, get yourself ready for work, and get everybody loaded up in the car just to remember that you forget about breakfast?

Storing Egg Bites
To store egg bites: transfer them to an airtight container or Ziploc bag, and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Always label the date on the outside of the container. To reheat egg bites from the fridge, place them on a microwave-safe plate and cook for about 20-30 seconds.
To freeze egg bites: individually wrap the egg bites with plastic wrap. Then, transfer the wrapped egg bites to a freezer-safe Ziploc bag, and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. Always label the date on the outside of the container. To reheat the egg bites from frozen, heat in the microwave for 60-90 seconds or until heated all the way through.
