Salsa & Eggs


Eggs & Salsa

This has to be the easiest and healthiest breakfast I've made in a long time.  Simple ingredients, fabulous flavor. It was given to me by the Grandison Inn located in Oklahoma City and it is their most requested breakfast dish among guests.

Once you make it for the first time, it's the kind of recipe that stays in your head that you can whip up quickly without even thinking twice about it.  Don't ya just love those?

All you need is 2 small ramekins, eggs, diced ham, cheese, and salsa.

I don't know about you, but anything with cheese is divine in my book.

I contemplated just layering the ham into the bottom of the ramekin whole, it just fit so nicely.  But it's much easier to eat and mix with the other flavors if you slice it.

Layer your ham first, then salsa, then crack your eggs and add them whole without breaking the yolk.

Yes, I said whole eggs, not scrambled.  I have to admit, when I read this part on the recipe I thought it was a little strange.  I had to resist the urge to scramble them and mix all the ingredients together. But the end result is yummy, trust me.

Place your ramekins on a cookie sheet or baking dish in case of spillage, and then bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees.

When the eggs have just started to turn white, remove from the oven and sprinkle on the cheese.

This is me ... making a funny face ... because I nearly forgot an ingredient.

I'm notorious for this.  I could have a "Where's Waldo" contest of finding the missing item in all of my ingredient shots.  But I have a good excuse for this one.

This is something I added that was not in the original recipe ...

hence ...

it wasn't written down.

It's a cup of fresh cut green peppers, tomatoes and onions to add a little color and crunchiness to the dish.

Add back to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted.  Watch closely ...

don't walk away to check email ... this happens quick.

EggsSalsa25

Remove from the oven and let cool for 3 to 5 minutes before serving.

Doesn't it look delish?  Happy little healthy breakfast ...
