Baked Egg and Spinach Tomato Cups

Serving Size

2

Ingredients

  • 2 tomatoes (cut in half)
  • 1 cup baby spinach (finely sliced)
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tbsp cottage cheese
  • Sea salt & black pepper (to taste)

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 450ºF (232ºC)
  • Cut your tomatoes in half and scoop the seeds and flesh to form cups. (Optional: Reserve seeds for another use.) If needed, slice a small piece off the bottom of each tomato to create a flat base for stability.
  • Arrange the tomato cups on a baking sheet. Pack ¼ cup of sliced spinach into the base of each cup, followed by one tablespoon of cottage cheese.
  • Crack an egg into each tomato cup, ensuring it covers the spinach and cottage cheese.
  • Bake for 15–20 minutes or until eggs reach your preferred doneness. (Check at 15 minutes for a runny yolk or closer to 20 minutes for firmer yolks.)
  • Remove from the oven and season with sea salt, black pepper, and optional herbs like fresh basil or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve alone or on a slice of toasted bread. Enjoy!
