We have a guest in the kitchen! We have Taylor of The Girl on Bloor back in our kitchen with a recipe that will help morning planning easier. These on-the-go breakfast cups will have you out the door in no time. Hey all!
Taylor here from The Girl on Bloor blog! I think I’ve made it pretty clear that I’m the biggest mushroom fan EVER, and I feel like I’m always trying to find new excuses to cook with this delicious vegetable. I mean come on, their savoury, umami flavour brings classic dishes to new heights. You just can’t go wrong.
My blog has changed focus more than a few times over the past couple years, and as a busy professional who’s constantly on-the-go, I’ve been leaning more and more towards meal prep as a way to eat healthy, wholesome foods that’ll keep me nourished and well prepared for my ever-evolving schedule.
So, I guess it makes sense that I’m bringing you these super yummy Caprese Baked Egg Cups, right?!I really can’t recommend this on-the-go breakfast enough. Just 25 minutes spent on the weekend making these will make a huge difference in the way you start your day. Grab a couple out of the fridge, reheat and carry on with your busy workday! No need to stop and make breakfast or eat at home before you get hungry because these are super lunchbox friendly!
The best part about these egg cups is that you can switch it up according to whatever veggies (and cheese!) you have on hand in the fridge so you can both use up food that’s about to go bad and change your routine at the same time.
Either way you look at it, this recipe is a winner!Caprese Baked Egg Cups
