Skinny Scottish Farmhouse Egg Skillet


Skinny Scottish Farmhouse Egg Skillet
Servings: 4
Time it'll take: about 30 mins

What you'll need:
  • 1 tbsp. Light Butter or Margarine 
  • 2 slices Whole Wheat/Multigrain Bread (I used Orowheat's Double Fiber bread, hence the extra fiber content of the dish)
  • 6-7 Eggs
  • 3 Green Onions, finely chopped
  • Salt & Pepper (to taste)
  • 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar Jack Cheese
  • 1 cup Lowfat Milk (I used 1%)
What to do:
  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Grease your skillet with the Butter, spreading it evenly over the bottom.
  • Toast your Bread, and let cool.  Once cool enough to handle, tear into chunks, and spread out in the skillet, covering the bottom.
  • Now take your Eggs, and carefully crack them, placing them one at a time gently over the bread crumbs, WITHOUT BREAKING THE YOKES.  Space them evenly throughout the pan.  (**NOTE: How many eggs you use is really up to you.  I used 5 whole eggs and 2 extra egg whites in between, and that was perfect.)
  • Chop your Green Onions, and sprinkle them over top of the eggs.
  • Season with Salt & Pepper, to taste.
  • Top with the Cheese.
  • Now, pour in your cup of Milk, ensuring that it spreads evenly to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Place the skillet in the oven, and cook for 20 mins. (Be sure NOT to open the oven while cooking, as it will prevent soufflĂ©'ing.)
  • When done, remove from oven and let cool for 5 mins. or so, then serve!
Serve with a side of turkey bacon or ham, if desired.

Happy Brunching! :) ENJOY!
