Baked Egg Surprise
The surprise here is how fresh and healthy this breakfast can be, while still based on the heartland favorites – eggs and cheese. This is another recipe I’ve been tweaking for more than 5 years. It turned out perfect this morning so I’m ready to give you my measurements.
4 eggs
1 tomato, diced
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped (substitute italian parsley)
1/2 cup plain fat-free yogurt
1 or 2 chopped chipotle peppers (substitute hot sauce)
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp mustard powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
toast, english muffins, or fresh bread
Pre-heat oven to 350. Coat an 8x8ish brownie pan with cooking/olive oil spray.
Chop & combine tomato, onion, and cilantro (or parsely).
Mix chipotle peppers and spices into the yogurt in a small bowl.
Break the eggs into the pan, top each egg with 1/4 cup of tomato/onion/cilantro mixture.
Spoon the yogurt mixture evenly on top of the eggs & veggies.
Top with shredded cheese.
Bake for 20 minutes or until the eggs are set (not much jiggling when you move the pan).
Serve on top of toast or bread.
