Ingredients

• 2 large Zucchini
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 4 medium Eggs
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Wash and trim the ends of the zucchinis. Using a spiralizer, cut the zucchinis into noodles (zoodles).

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, toss the zoodles with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well coated.

Step 4

Divide the zoodles into four equal portions and place each portion into a non-stick muffin tin or ramekin, pressing them down to form a nest shape with a small well in the center.

Step 5

Crack an egg into the center of each zucchini nest, being careful to keep the yolk intact.

Step 6

Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of each nest.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin or ramekins in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your preference.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Carefully remove the nests from the muffin tin or ramekins using a spoon or a small spatula.

Step 9

Garnish each nest with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb bird's nest as a tasty breakfast or brunch option.
