I had some cream left over from a soup I made over the weekend and I’ve been looking for more breakfast options. I was flipping through my $1.99 cheapo vegetarian cookbook and stumbled upon a recipe for Baked Eggs with Cream, Spinach and Parmesan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I had all of the ingredients and it was a simple 3 step recipe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Ingredients:
\n<\/strong>2 Tablespoons Butter – plus a little extra for greasing
\n4.5 Ounces Baby Spinach
\n1\/2 Teaspoon Freshly Grated Nutmeg
\n4 Small Eggs
\n1\/4 Cup Light Cream
\n2 Tablespoons Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
\nSalt and Pepper to Taste<\/p>\n

I cut the recipe in 1\/2 and only used 1 egg per dish.<\/p>\n

Directions:
\n<\/strong>Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
\nStep 1<\/strong> – Lightly grease 2 individual ceramic dishes – the recipe photo showed very shallow gratin dishes – I only had ramekins.
\nStep 2<\/strong> – Melt butter in a pan over\u00a0medium\/low and add the spinach.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cook spinach for 1-2 minutes, stirring with wooden spoon until spinach starts to wilt. Season with ground nutmeg and divide among prepared dishes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Step 3<\/strong> – Gently break 2 eggs into each dish…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Again… I only used one egg due to the size of dish.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pour the cream over the egg…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and then season with salt and pepper. I grated my own parm and it was more of a fine shred consistency.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bake at 350 degrees F. for 5 minutes. Because I used a smaller\/deeper dish – mine took closer to 10 minutes before the whites started to harden – while the yolk still remained runny.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I popped some multi-grain toast into the toaster and served it dry with the egg dish.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The toast was perfect for dipping…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Option two – enter the tortilla…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I just scooped the egg mixture out of the ramekin on top of the tortilla that I warmed in the microwave.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I liked the eggs both ways – but I will always have a soft spot for bread… any kind of bread. Bread is my weakness.<\/p>\n

Question: How do you like your eggs?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I grew up liking “egg in a hole” or fried with a fully cooked yolk. Now I like my eggs over easy (never on or near a waffle, pancake or syrup)\u00a0and I also like them\u00a0hard boiled.
