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. With their simple preparation and delicious outcome, they are perfect for both everyday meals and special occasions.
