Eggy breakfast bites

Saturday morning, feeling hungry but havent decided what to have for breakfast yet. I wanted something hot, eggy, tasty and filling. Something like a frittata but with a bit of crunch. So I went to my fridge, pulled out some ingredients and got to work. Here is my creation.


Ingredients
Filling:
20g Ham
2 Button mushroom
handful of Baby rocket
handful of Tasty cheese

1 Tortilla wrap
6 eggs
1/2 cup of milk
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Tear up or carefully cut the tortilla wrap to line a 12 hole muffin tin (slightly greased to prevent sticking). Torn bits create a rustic look and will crisp up during baking. Dont worry if there are holes, once baked the egg will hold everything together.

Cut mushroom and ham into small cubes. Divide into muffin tin, and top with cheese and baby rocket.

In a jug, lightly beat 6 eggs with milk and season to taste. Pour over filling.

Cover lightly with foil if rocket leaves are protruding, and bake in oven for 15-20mins (remove foil halfway through baking). Bake until the egg has set and risen slightly.

Pop onto plate and enjoy with a nice cup of coffee on the balcony :)




***************************************************************

This recipe is SO flexible, you could use anything you have in the fridge or pantry as the filling. Try with olives and sundried tomato. Swap out the rocket with some baby spinach. You could also precook the mushroom with some onion and sausages and then fill the muffin tin. If you're after a cheesy topping, add the cheese last. I think I might try some salmon flakes next time, or baked beans. Have some fun and enjoy your lovely baked breakfast.
