Great easy egg breakfast treats!

Ingredients

  • Equipment:
  • 1/2 small white onion, sautéed
  • 2 slices cooked bacon
  • 1 ounce shredded cheese
  • 1 cup arugula
  • 2 eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Eggs
  • Garlic
  • Peppers
  • Tomato
  • Hot pepper
  • Cooked potato
  • Spinach, kale, or other greens
  • Cooked bacon, diced prosciutto, sausage or other meats
  • Cheeses
  • Cream
  • Soy sauce
  • Ramekins or Cup Cake pan

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Spray the inside of each ramekin with cooking spray, or rub butter on instead. Now, you get to layer on the ingredients. I started with the onions, then bacon, then cheese, arugula, an egg, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Be sure to make a dimple in the middle of the arugula for the egg to sit.

Bake for 10-15 minutes, depending on your oven’s quirks and rack position. According to Mark Bittman, it should take 12 minutes in a good oven with the rack positioned in the middle. Err on the side of undercooked, because the chewy film on an over-baked egg is nasty.

This particular recipe serves two, but you can make as many eggs as you have ramekins. Or try baking the eggs in a muffin pan.
