One of the best things about these cheesy chicken egg cups is how easily they can be customized to your liking.

Feel free to experiment with different types of cheeses, such as sharp cheddar, creamy Gruyere, or tangy feta. You can also add your favorite vegetables, such as chopped bell peppers, onions, or spinach, to boost the nutritional value and add extra flavor. For a spicier kick, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.

And if you're looking for a convenient way to meal prep for the week ahead, these egg cups are an excellent choice. They can be easily made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for several days, making them a perfect grab-and-go option for busy individuals. Simply reheat them in the microwave or oven when you're ready to enjoy a delicious and nutritious meal.
