Ingredients:
1 6-ounce package Canadian bacon, chopped
Butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray
1 cup red potato wedges, refrigerated no-oil-added, cubed
1 small plum tomato, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
4 large eggs
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground
4 teaspoons nonfat half-and-half
4 teaspoons reduced-fat Gruyere, Swiss OR white Cheddar cheese, finely shredded (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat inside of four 6-ounce ramekins or custard cups/ramekins with cooking spray; set aside.
Combine Canadian bacon, potatoes, tomato and chives in a medium bowl. Spoon mixture evenly in ramekins.
Break egg into each ramekin on top of the Canadian bacon mixture. Sprinkle with pepper. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of half-and-half over each egg. Place ramekins on baking sheet.
Bake in heated oven for 15-20 minutes or until egg whites are opaque and yolks have firm edges but soft in centers. Remove from oven.
If desired, sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon cheese. Serve immediately.
Serves 4
Note: For a Southwest twist, toss the Canadian bacon mixture with 1/2 teaspoon chili powder before spooning it into the ramekins.
