Copycat Starbucks Egg Bites

These are soooo fluffy, soooo good, and sooooo EASY to make. Why would you waste your money buying them at Starbucks or worse buying them in a grocery store with a ton of additives? No thanks. These made 9 egg bites with 8 eggs, few slices of ham, whatever veggies you want (my kids do not care for veggies except bell pepper in eggs, but I do not have any). I will link the Dash below. 😀 My kids LOVE these topped with salsa, but obvi you do not need to top it with anything.  You Will Need: 8 Eggs Chives Salt & Pepper  Butter (little in each mold) Cheese (little in each mold) Ham, diced (little in each mold) Bell Peppers, diced (little in each mold) Onions, diced (little in each mold) Frozen Potatoes, thawed (little in each mold) 1/2 Cup Cottage Cheese Shop my amazon storefront  (the egg bite maker is there!)

Crockpot Pulled Pork Sandwich

This is the most moist, tender pulled pork I have ever had! Now, we do not often eat pork because it is hard to find a good brand that is not poorly raised and that is organic. However, I saw this Simple Truth brand and I just knew it would be okay, I trusted it fully. I suggest, if you do not have a Kroger or a store that is a cousin to Kroger then Whole Foods Market or a health food store will have the best. The BBQ sauce can also be found at Whole Foods Market or Kroger. The BBQ sauce is the ONLY brand I trust; it is made with pure ingredients that are organic and has agave instead of sugar (much better for you- I buy their ketchup... yum yum). Anyhow.. back to this.. I did not want to 'over' season this pork, just let it do its' thing in its' own juices and a bit of homemade ranch seasoning.

You Will Need:

5 lbs. Natural Pork Tenderloin
4 tsp Homemade Ranch Packets 
2 Bottles Organic BBQ Sauce
Organic Buns



Place pork in crockpot


Add your ranch seasoning, and cover half way with water; cook on low for 6-8 hours or high 4-6 hours (turn half way if you're home in time to do so, otherwise I would cover the pork with the water) 


Pull out of crockpot after the allowed time, and remove any fat that you can


Shred the pork finely. I ended up needing two whole bottles of sauce, because there was a LOT of meat (woo hoo leftovers!) add sauce and mix


Only sauce I trust!


These buns are homemade (no I do not have recipe on them yet...) 


We had Organic Chips (cooked in Avocado Oil),  Organic Mixed Veggies, and home canned pickles for our sides, but you can do whatever you want! Coleslaw would be lovely and/or homemade potato wedges
