“My diabetic husband hates eating breakfast when he is pressed for time. Of course this would usually mean a quick trip to McDonald’s for a greasy, unhealthy meal on the way.I like to make these for him so he can eat them in the car on his way to work. I found this tasty recipe in Taste of Home and tweaked it a little to suit our tastes. With sausage, corn bread and eggs, they have everything you would want in a breakfast. To make it even quicker, I like to freeze 2 muffins in a sandwich baggie, then place all baggies in a gallon freezer bag to freeze. When needed, all I do is pop 2 frozen muffins in the microwave for 1 minute. Along with a cup of coffee, he’s all set for an on-the-go breakfast with no time to waste.”
