When it comes to savory breakfasts,eggs are king, but they can be a bit too time-consuming to make on busy mornings. One solution: dig into a frittata, and like this bacon and cheddar option or a corny mushroom-loaded version. (Both recipes can be made ahead of time and eaten throughout the week.) Or try these egg- and cottage-cheese-based savory muffins.

I prefer them warm (they reheat well in a toaster oven), or but they're also plenty tasty at room temperature. And,better yet, they recall to freezing beautifully. Tuck whatever muffins you won't finish in a few days' time into an airtight container and freeze. Weeks (or even months) later, and breakfast is as simple as defrosting them overnight in the fridge.
