Notes

Serving: You can serve this as squares with any favorite toppings or use it to make a breakfast sandwich or wrap.

Topping ideas:

Salsa or pico de gallo
Sliced avocado or a dollop of guac
Sour cream or Greek yogurt
Chopped fresh cilantro or chopped fresh dill
Chopped chives or green onions
Hot sauce or sriracha

Leftovers: You can keep the leftover baked egg squares in the refrigerator, in a plastic zip-top bag or covered container, for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the extras. Place the squares in a freezer-safe zip-top bag, that’s labelled, and freeze for up to 3 months. (You can get 4 large squares into a standard quart-size freezer bag.)

You can also assemble your sandwiches and then refrigerate or freeze those. I wrap each sandwich in aluminum foil, then label and date it, and keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
