Eggs And Oats – Two Breakfast One Week Meal Prep
This eggs and oats meal prep breakfast plan will give you alternate days of egg muffins and overnight oats. This is one of the simplest, easiest and fastest way to prep a full week of breakfasts with minimal ingredients and a small investment of time.
I like to have an affordable, quick and easy prep I can do for breakfasts for when the budget is as tight as my time. This combination comes together quickly and with minimal fuss, as you’ll see below.

Eggs and oats are a great combo both for fiber and protein. Alternate days for the best use of your food and make sure you keep the extra egg muffins in the freezer. You can either take some out to thaw in the fridge on Thursday night or you can microwave them to warm them up. But definitely keep the extras in the freezer because they won’t last the entire week safely.
Note that the sides shown in the photo above are not on the shopping list. Use whatever sides you prefer. The blueberries and almonds just happened to be what I had on hand to round out my breakfast.
Here’s your eggs and oats, budget and time-friendly meal prep plan!

Hi, I’m confused about using a standard muffin pan to make mini muffins. How deep do you pour the eggs, or better yet, how many egg muffins should we pour with this recipe?
Jenn – My apologies. That was a mistake. It’s been fixed. It’s a mini muffin pan. Hope you enjoy them! Thanks!
