My family loves breakfast. I mean LOVES breakfast. I can fix breakfast in the morning, at noon or (their favorite) for dinner and it will make everyone happy! And since they ask for it often, I like to change things up with a variety of recipes.
One recipe we recently came up with is this one, for Mini Egg and Cheese Breakfast Bowls. It’s different and healthy and something that can be customized to your liking! I have one child who doesn’t like onions, so I omit those from her bowl. I have another child that wants extra cheese, and it’s easy to top his off with a little more.
Ingredients:
6 flour tortillas
6 eggs
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup shredded cheese (any type)
1/4 cup pico de gallo
salt and pepper to taste
Start by placing each tortilla on a plate and cutting out a 4″ circle from the center. I like to use a large rim cup and trim off the outer edge. You can also use a small ramekin or a circle cookie cutter. *Of course the 4″ is approximate. As long as the tortilla fits inside the muffin tin to your liking, it will work! Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Crack the 6 eggs into a medium size bowl and whisk in the sour cream. If the sour cream seems lumpy, it’s okay, as the lumps will cook into the eggs.
Stir the cheese into the egg mixture, then season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the mixture into the tortilla cups and top with the pico de gallo. Again, if you have a child who doesn’t like onions, leave those out. If you have a child who wants to add bacon, go for it! Since these are individual cups, you really could create a spread of options for each person’s liking. Make it fun!
Bake the cups for 10 minutes, until the center firms up. Keep in mind the centers will continue to bake after they are removed from the oven and you don’t want to over-do it.
I love to make these with Goldrich eggs because the yolks really are golden and the final product is beautiful!
