- 7 large eggs

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin with avocado oil to prevent sticking.

- In a large bowl whisk eggs together with salt and pepper.
- Place pepperoni in muffin tins, creating a cup to hold the toppings. Add 1 heaping tablespoon of pepper and mushroom mixture in each cup. Repeat until muffin tin is full. Divide whisked eggs evenly among pepperoni cups. Top with a little more pizza sauce (optional) and a pinch of dried basil and red pepper flakes.
- Bake for 12 minutes or until eggs are set and no longer jiggle. Let cool for a few minutes.
- Enjoy!
