Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 1 cup low-fat shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
• 1 cup baby spinach leaves
• 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 tablespoons milk (low-fat or unsweetened plant-based milk)
• 1 teaspoon olive oil or cooking spray
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease two small oven-safe ramekins or baking dishes with olive oil or cooking spray.

Step 3

In each ramekin, layer half of the baby spinach and cherry tomato halves.

Step 4

Crack two eggs into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolks.

Step 5

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of milk over the eggs in each ramekin for a creamier texture.

Step 6

Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheese over the eggs and vegetables in each dish.

Step 7

Season each dish with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 8

Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for easier handling and transfer them to the preheated oven.

Step 9

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny (adjust cooking time if you prefer firmer yolks).

Step 10

Carefully remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your healthy, delicious baked eggs!
