Baked Eggs And Popped Beans Food

EGG AND BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
• Divide baked beans between 3 small ovenproof dishes.
• Add Louisana hot sauce (about 1 - 1½ tbsp) into each dish. Stir to combine.
• Add cheddar cheese, then crack an egg into the center of each dish. Finish with more cheese.
• Cook in the oven for about 15 minutes or longer or until eggs are set or cooked to your liking.
• Remove from the oven, serve with fresh chives and bread (optional).

BAKED EGGS AND POPPED BEANS

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the beans, and add to a hot non-stick pan with the fennel seeds and a pinch of black pepper.
• Occasionally shaking the pan, continue to fry until the skins pop.
• Drain off some of the liquid in canned tomatoes and add to the pan with a squirt of lemon juice.
• Add the eggs and cover, cooking until the eggs are the desired doneness, 3-4 minutes for soft and runny.
• Serve with balsamic, hot sauce and/or your favorite condiments. Jamie suggested toast and ricotta on the side. Keeping this appropriate for a low gi meal, be careful about the bread.

BAKED EGGS WITH BEANS AND GREENS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. If using the sausage, add to the pan and cook, breaking it into 1/2-inch pieces, by pressing with the back of spatula or wooden spoon until crisp and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chickpeas and the garlic and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with salt. Add the sausage back to the pan along with the tomatoes and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and gradually add in the chopped greens by the handful, tossing together until wilted. Season with salt.
• Using a spoon, create hollows in the sauce and gently crack the eggs into each, and season the eggs with salt and pepper. Transfer to the oven and cook until the eggs are set, about 7 to 9 minutes. Scatter the herbs on top along with a tablespoon or two of grated cheese, if using.

BAKED EGGS AND BEANS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 more minute. Stir in the vinegar, honey mustard, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 cup water, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer, then add the beans, plus the liquid from one of the cans. Cook until the beans are soft, about 5 more minutes.
• Make eight indentations in the bean mixture and crack an egg into each. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and transfer to the oven. Bake until the egg whites are set, 10 to 14 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brush the bread with olive oil on both sides and toast in the skillet, 1 minute per side. Toss the tomatoes, parsley, the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Divide the toast among plates; top each with 2 eggs, some beans and the tomato salad.

SAUCY BEAN BAKED EGGS

Steps:

• Tip the tomatoes and bean salad into an ovenproof frying pan or shallow flameproof casserole dish. Simmer for 10 mins, or until reduced. Stir in the spinach and cook for 5 mins more until wilted.
• Heat the grill to medium. Make four indentations in the mixture using the back of a spoon, then crack one egg in each. Nestle the ham in the mixture, then grill for 4-5 mins, or until the whites are set and the yolks runny. Serve with rye bread, if you like.

SMOKY BEANS & BAKED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wide, shallow pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until softened. Add the pepper and cook for another 5 mins, stirring regularly, until softened. Stir in the garlic, paprika and ketchup, then tip in the tomatoes, cover and leave to simmer gently for 10 mins. Remove the lid and cook for a few more minutes to thicken, then add the beans. Can be cooled and frozen in portions at this stage.
• Use a spoon to make 4-6 spaces in the mixture for the eggs - you should be able to see some of the bottom of the pan. Crack the eggs one by one into a cup or bowl and gently drop one into each hole. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 3-5 mins until the egg whites are cooked through but the yolks are still runny. Scatter over the coriander to serve.
