I am working my way through the frozen breakfast options at Costco and am giving the Jimmy Dean Delights English Muffins a try this week. These sandwiches are made from whole grain muffins with egg whites, turkey sausage and cheese.

How to Heat Jimmy Dean Delights English Muffins
There are two sets of heating instructions for these muffins:
- Heating from Frozen
- Heating from Thawed
Frozen Heating Instructions
To heat the muffins from frozen you need to:
- Remove the muffin from the plastic wrapper.
- Wrap the muffin in a paper towel.
- Heat the muffin on the Defrost Setting of your microwave for 90 seconds.
- Flip the muffin over
- Microwave on High for 65 seconds
- Let the muffin cool for two minutes and enjoy!
I followed these instructions and the meal was perfectly heated through.
Thawed Heating Instructions
To heat the muffins after they have thawed in your refrigerator you need to:
- Remove the muffin from the plastic wrapper.
- Wrap the muffin in a paper towel.
- Microwave on High for 65 seconds
- Let the muffin cool for two minutes and enjoy!
Are the Jimmy Dean Delights from Costco Good?
The Jimmy Dean Delights muffins are good but not great.
I liked all of the components of the meal but none of them stood out as being exceptional. The egg whites and turkey sausage were fine. The muffin was dry and a little tough making it my last favorite part of the meal.
A single muffin was enough to fill me up to start the day but it isn’t anything that I am really looking forward to eating tomorrow. I will keep these in my freezer and eat the rest of them eventually.
Calories in Jimmy Dean Delights English Muffins
One English muffin sandwich is considered a single serving and has the following calories and nutritional information:
- Calories: 260
- Fat: 8g (10% DV)
- Cholesterol: 35mg (12% DV)
- Sodium: 730 mg (32% DV)
- Carbohydrates: 32g (12% DV)

These muffins have a lot fewer calories than Jimmy Dean’s Breakfast Croissants and just a fraction of the cholesterol found in Red’s Turkey Eggwiches.
I appreciate that the muffins are made with cage free egg whites.
Price of Jimmy Dean Delights at Costco
I bought the twelve pack of frozen breakfast sandwiches for $15.49 at Costco which comes out to a cost of $1.29 per muffin.
You can buy an eight count package of these muffins at Walmart for $14.12 which comes out to a cost of $1.76 per muffin.
This means that you will save $0.47 per muffin (26%) when you buy them at Costco.
