Breakfast. Often considered the most important meal in a day. Sadly, many of us who work full time tend to neglect it. Instead of celebrating this first meal and making it full and nutritious, we grab something on our way to work or prepare something quick – at home, or even at work! Such meals don’t have to be tasteless or unhealthy (see my recipe for an office porridge), but they can get boring after a while. Well thank goodness for the weekend! Here’s my recipe for a fun, tasty and nutritious breakfast – an egg toast in a ramekin.

For 1 ramekin you’ll need:

• 1 egg
• 1 slice of toast
• a few pieces of ham
• 2 tablespoons of grated cheese
• chives
• seasoning (salt, pepper, herbs)
• butter to grease the ramekin

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.

Grease the ramekins with butter and line them with bread.

Add cheese, ham and chopped-up chives.

Add another layer of cheese and ham, add your seasoning.

Crack the egg into the ramekin.

Cover the egg with more chives, ham and cheese.

Depending on how you like your eggs, you can choose to break the yolk (if you don’t, it’ll be runny when you take the ramekin out of the oven).

Bake your ramekin egg toasts for about 15 minutes.

Enjoy!
