Baked eggs brunch

This low-calorie vegetarian breakfast with sundried tomatoes, spinach, leeks and cheese is the perfect way to start a day.

 

Ingredients (4 servings):

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 leeks, thinly sliced
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 x 100g bags baby spinach leaves
  • handful fresh whole meal breadcrumbs
  • 25g Parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), finely grated
  • 4 sundried tomatoes, chopped
  • 4 medium eggs

 

Method:

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 
  2. Heat the oil in a pan and add the leeks, onions and seasoning. Cook for 15-20 mins until soft and beginning to caramelise.
  3. Meanwhile, put the spinach in a colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water. When cool enough to handle, squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  4. Mix the breadcrumbs and cheese together.
  5. Arrange the leek and onion mixture between 4 ovenproof dishes, then scatter with the spinach and pieces of sundried tomato.
  6. Make a well in the middle of each dish and crack an egg in it. Season and sprinkle with cheese crumbs.
  7. Put the dishes on a baking tray and cook for 12-15 mins, until the whites are set and yolks are cooked to your liking.
