We are grab and go breakfast people at our house.   Since my kids were little,  the best way to make sure everyone  got a good breakfast was to have ready made items stashed away in the freezer.

Luckily, this Sausage and Cheese Egg Muffin Recipe is super easy to make in bulk.  Consequently, the only thing left to do is to warm them up and go!

*While the pictures show the recipe being made with freeze dried ham, the recipe itself has been changed to use sausage instead.

Why Freeze Dried Food?

In an emergency, I want to know my family will be able to eat well.  It’s important to me that what I have in my food storage, is food my family will eat.

Therefore,  I stock freeze dried food so I can have the  meats, cheeses, veggies and fruits my family loves and use these ingredients in our everyday recipes.

In addition to the ease of  cooking with freeze dried food, my food waste has also gone down significantly.

*I added extra ham and cheese to my muffins as some of my family wouldn’t touch a vegetable to save their lives.

1 Cup  Scrambled Egg Mix

2 Cups Water

1 Cup Freeze Dried Sausage

1 Cup  Freeze Dried Cheese

1/2 Cup  Freeze Dried  Spinach

1 Tablespoon  Freeze Dried  Onions

1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)

1/4 teaspoon pepper (optional)

Set aside an EXTRA 1/2 Cup of water to be added when sausage and onions are added to help with the ‘defrosting’ process.

Thrive Scrambled Egg Mix

Directions For Making Egg Muffins

First, combine the 2 cups of water with the 1 cup of eggs. Mix well. Salt and Pepper.

Sprinkle the cheddar cheese into the egg mixture and let set for about 10 minutes to rehydrate cheese.

Next, add sausage and onion,stirring well.   Now add the extra 1/2 cup water to accommodate rehydrating.

Break up the spinach a bit, and fold it into the veggies.

Ham and Cheese Egg Muffins

Due to the amazing that is  my new silicone pan, my muffins pop right out, unlike when I was using a tin pan.

Finally, spray a muffin pan to lightly grease it. Spoon mixture evenly into the 12 cups, making sure each cup has an equal amount of egg to ‘goodies’  ratio.

Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

Why Worry About Preparing?

Preparedness makes more sense now than ever.

As we move through 2026, it’s clear that the world is shifting in ways many of us can feel — even if we can’t always predict what’s next. In recent years we’ve seen global supply chain disruptions, international conflicts affecting energy and food markets, extreme weather events across multiple continents, cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, economic uncertainty, inflation, and rising costs for everyday essentials.

From global pandemics to geopolitical tensions and natural disasters happening around the world, the message is the same: stability isn’t guaranteed.

Whether or not you believe we’re headed toward a major global reset, there are plenty of everyday realities that make preparedness practical — not extreme. Job loss. Health emergencies. Severe storms. Power outages. Supply shortages. Economic downturns.

Preparedness isn’t about panic.

It’s about positioning your family to respond calmly when life throws the unexpected your way.

We’ve found that the more intentional emergency planning my family does, the less I worry about the big “what ifs.” When you have food storage in place, backup plans for power and water, and practical skills to lean on, uncertainty feels manageable.

That peace of mind is powerful.

Here at Simply Preparing, we share the survival tips, preparedness strategies, and practical systems we’ve learned along the way — from pantry building and food storage to emergency planning and self-reliance skills. Our goal is not to create fear, but to create confidence.

And we hope you’ll join the conversation.

Preparedness is not a solo journey. We all bring different experiences, lessons, and perspectives to the table. Share what you’ve learned. Ask questions. Leave comments. We grow stronger and smarter together.

Now, let’s get started prepping.

Pick a post and begin reading. At the end of every article, the blog will randomly suggest three additional preparedness posts to explore. Set aside just 10 minutes a day to build your knowledge base. Small, consistent steps add up faster than you think.

Because when it comes to preparedness, we’re never truly “done” learning — and we’re never wrong for being ready.

Let’s prepare wisely.
