Organic sourcing

Eggs are worth buying organic for higher quality and better animal welfare. Green onions tend to absorb pesticides, making organic a smarter choice here.

Ingredients

• 8 slices bacon
• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped green onions
• to taste salt
• to taste black pepper

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a skillet over medium heat, partially cook the bacon until just beginning to brown but still pliable.
3. Place each slice of bacon around the sides of non-stick muffin cups, creating a ring. Repeat for all muffin cups.
4. Crack an egg into each bacon-lined muffin cup.
5. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and a portion of the cheddar cheese.
6. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until the eggs are set to your preferred doneness.
7. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes.
8. Garnish the top with fresh chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

• Use any type of cheese you prefer in place of cheddar.
• For a spicier version, add chopped jalapeños on top.
