Ingredients

  • 2 flat mushrooms
  • 2 eggs
  • Parmesan cheese
  • 2 slices of bacon
  • 1-2 tomatoes

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Slice the bacon into small pieces and In a frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon pieces until they're crispy. Once done, set them aside.
  • Clean and remove the stems from the mushrooms to create little "cups" for the eggs and fillings.
  • Dice the tomatoes into small pieces.
  • Place the mushrooms, gill-side up, on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Fill each mushroom cap with a small amount of cooked bacon and a little bit of chopped tomatoes.
  • Crack an egg carefully into each mushroom cup, ensuring the egg doesn’t overflow.
  • Grate a little Parmesan cheese on top of the eggs and mushrooms.
  • Pop the tray into the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your liking (soft or firm).
  • Once baked, remove the mushroom cups from the oven. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, salt, and pepper to taste. Serve immediately for a quick, easy, and healthy breakfast!
