Yesterday I was thinking about all the wonderful things you eat when you stay at a bed and breakfast. I thought, why can’t I pretend I’m staying at a B&B? So, I decided to look up some bed and breakfast recipes to see what I could make that would be deluxe, but I could make it healthier. I went to www.bedandbreakfast.com and they had thousands of bed and breakfast recipes! This Bed & Breakfast Egg bake sounded awesome!
After looking at a bunch of recipes, one popped out at me. It was an individual breakfast bake made in a ramekin.
I used:
1 small potato, sliced
1/2 chicken pesto bratwurst, sliced (from Trader Joe’s)
1 oz. cheddar cheese
1 egg + 2 egg whites
salt and pepper to taste
I sliced a raw potato, put it in a microwave dish and covered it with water and cooked it on the baked potato setting on my microwave
Next, I took a ramekin, sprayed it with cooking spray. I took a few of the cooked potatoes and put them on the bottom, then a few of the slices of chicken pesto bratwurst, then some cheese, and kept making layers until I was out of ingredients. (Save some cheese for the top)
In a separate dish, add 1 egg + 2 egg whites + 1 TB. water and scramble it all up. Pour over the top of the ramekin. Add the remaining cheese on top. I baked this for about 20 minutes at 375. You will know when its done because the eggs will be set.
This whole dish was 350 calories!!
The next thing I made for lunch today was kicked up Ramen Noodles!
Instead of using the spice packet that comes with it, I decided to use 1/2 the block of ramen noodles, with 3 cups of chicken broth. Did you know 3 cups of chicken broth is only 15 calories??
So in a pot, I added chopped garlic, red onion, the chicken broth, handful of shredded carrots, a handful of broccoli slaw, sugar snap peas, 3 leftover pot stickers, and 1 TB. of Saigon Sizzle stir fry sauce.
I brought that up to a boil, then added the ramen noodles, and simmered that for a few minutes until the noodles were cooked. AMAZING!
This HUGE pot is only 300 calories!! And a great way to get in a ton of veggies! I can’t wait for lunch!
That is way too decadent looking to be just 350 calories! This is fabulous!
Just where is this bed and breakfast? I might need to taste some of this deliciousness…
Awesome!!!
Both of those sound great!! I love baked egg dishes but haven’t had one in a LONG time!
I’d be looking for lunch as well! I can’t remember the last time I had a great egg dish like that. And I’m obsessed with ramen haha, so here’s a way to make it healthy! Woo-hoo! Thanks!
Love the breakfast bake – that’s my kind of breakfast!
Soups are a great way to pack in a lot of food for little calories – my mom eats soups everyday when she’s watching her weight.
What a great looking breakfast, and lunch! I’m totally jealous!
what a great idea, bringing the b&b home!!! I love the omelettes they make at b&b and also the abundant fruit platters!
veggies rock! you can eat so much for so few calories!!!
Those Pesto Bratwursts sound delicious!
This dish looks and sounds terrific!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Wow!! I looove the b&b recipe because i recently came back from my trip to a b&b and they had the BEST baked omelete ever, which i totally recreated as well. Great minds think alike huh?!?!? Thank you for sharing the website cuz I’m definitely gonna check that out now. 🙂
omg…that egg dish looks delish! I could probably eat 3 bowls of those. YUM!
and mm….how can you say no to ramen? I used to crunch on it uncooked like crackers when I was young. Now I try to abstain from them, but once in a while, it is pure indulgence.
I could really go for that breakfast bake. I made a vegetarian version once only to realize I did not have enough ramekins for the group so I just combined everybody’s and made it in a 9×13 pan.
I see these individual baked eggs and wonder why I forget to make one for myself. They are so yummy. I like your version of kicked up Ramen. I don’t usually like the flavor packets and all their MSG glory. So your alternative is great!
Yum! And only 350 calories – perfect!
Oh wow superb breakfast….
Great idea! Sounds like the perfect and simple breakfast dish. Unfortunately the B&B I have stayed in serve fruits and pastries nothing ever cool.
Just want to remind you that you can also find delicious recipes broken down by different categories on the recipe page at http://www.BnBFinder.com. You can even rate recipes. Happy cooking or baking!
Great idea..B&B in your own home 🙂
