Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup orange puree (see Make-Ahead Recipe)
- 2 cups low-fat shredded cheese
- 2 cups cooked macaroni
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
Step 1
Oven-bake method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin tin with paper liners. Lightly spray liners with oil. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and orange puree. Mix in the macaroni and 1 cup of the cheese. Divide the mixture evenly among the 8 muffin cups. Top each with about one tablespoon of cheese and bake for 20 to 22 minutes, until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly on top. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Microwave method: Line 8 microwave-safe ramekins or custard cups with paper muffin liners. Lightly spray liners with oil. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and orange puree. Mix in the macaroni and 1 cup of the cheese.
Divide the mixture evenly among the ramekins. Top each with about one tablespoon of cheese and microwave on high for 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
