As I was thumbing through Everyday Food Magazine, I came across this recipe that I think is brilliant! It’s like an egg-in-a-hole, but lighter and for those of you not eating carbs or gluten-free, a great alternative!
I served mine on a half point piece of whole wheat toast, but the bread is completely optional. Next time I think I’ll try these in large onion rings? Maybe even topping with a little grated cheddar? So many possibilities.
