Happy New Year everyone! Yes it’s 8 days in but we have all been chilling out and getting back into the swing of normal life after a few weeks of over-eating and drinking.

So this morning (possibly afternoon…) Doug and I wanted a very very easy brunch. Preferably one that would use up items we already have and that may be about to expire. This is so easy that I feel guilty showing it on this blog. It’s not really a recipe and can be adapted left right and centre, but man alive is it good…

Baked Eggs – adapted from Tasty Kitchen and Delia

Take rammekina and grease them with butter. Crack an egg into each rammekin and then add some seasoning. I used a pinch of salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Then add a teaspoon or two of cream cheese, I used a really good quality cream cheese that was almost like a mousse (because we had it in the fridge) but you could also use cream, yoghurt, milk, anything of that ilk! Then I topped it with a handful of grated mozzarella (my new favourite ingredient). Place in a baking tray and pour boiling water to halfway up the sides of the rammekins.  Then bake for 15 minutes at 175 C or 350 F. Tuck in with toast or a warmed pitta bread!
