Mushroom & egg bakes

Mushroom & egg bakes are a delightful and savory dish that's perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even as a light dinner. This recipe combines the earthy flavors of mushrooms with the rich creaminess of eggs and cream cheese, resulting in a comforting and satisfying meal. It's quick to prepare and uses just a handful of ingredients, making it an excellent option for both novice and seasoned cooks.

Ingredients:

2 tsp olive oil
9g
3/4 cup mushrooms
170g
4 eggs
200g
1 tbsp cream cheese
16g
salt & pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease four individual ramekins or baking dishes with some of the olive oil.
2. Cook the Mushrooms:
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and have released their moisture. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the mushrooms with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
3. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
- Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the cream cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Whisk the eggs and cream cheese together until well combined. The cream cheese may remain slightly lumpy, which is fine.
4. Assemble the Bakes:
- Evenly distribute the cooked mushrooms among the prepared ramekins.
- Pour the egg and cream cheese mixture over the mushrooms, dividing it equally between the ramekins.
5. Bake:
- Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for easier handling.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center and slightly puffed up.
6. Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let the ramekins cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve your mushroom & egg bakes warm. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or any light meal.

Tips:

- For a richer flavor, consider adding a bit of grated cheese on top before baking.

- You can enhance the taste by including some herbs like thyme or parsley.

- Ensure the mushrooms are cooked well before adding the eggs to avoid a watery consistency.

- Experiment with different types of mushrooms, such as shiitake or portobello, for a varied taste.

- Serve the bakes with a side of toast or a simple green salad to make it a more complete meal.

Mushroom & egg bakes are a versatile and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed at any time of the day.
