Ingredients
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1/4 tsp Dried Oregano
  • Pinch Salt
  • Pinch Black Pepper
  • Optional Crusty Bread (for dipping)

Prepare the Tomatoes

Halve or quarter the cherry tomatoes and set aside.

Heat the Pan

Heat the olive oil in a small, oven-safe skillet or ramekin over medium heat.

Cook the Eggs

Crack the eggs into the skillet. Cook until the whites are mostly set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.

Add the Tomatoes and Cheese

Sprinkle the tomatoes around the eggs. Then, generously top with shredded cheddar cheese. Season with oregano, salt, and pepper.

Melt the Cheese

Place the skillet under a preheated broiler (or in a hot oven) for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve Immediately

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve immediately, preferably with crusty bread for dipping.

FAQ

  • Can I use different types of cheese?

    Yes! Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella, Gruyere, or feta. Adjust the amount to your preference.
  • Can I add any other vegetables?

    Absolutely! Spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers would be great additions. Add them to the pan before the tomatoes.
  • Can I prepare this in the microwave?

    While it's possible, the texture might not be as desirable. If microwaving, cook the eggs first for about 1 minute, then add the tomatoes and cheese and microwave for another 30-60 seconds until melted.
