Bacon and Eggs in Toast Cups

(Courtesy of thenoshery.com)



Ingredients:
6 slices of bread
6 slices of bacon
6 eggs
1/2 c. shredded cheese
Salt and pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Spray muffin pan with butter-flavored non-stick spray.

Using a cookie cutter, cut circles out of bread slices (about 3 inches in diameter).

Take bread circles and press them into the muffin pan, set aside.

Heat a large skillet on medium-high.  Cook bacon on the skillet until partially cooked but still pliable, about 3 minutes.

Shape bacon strips into the toast cups, fill with 1 Tbsp. of shredded cheese.  Place in the oven for 5 minutes, allowing the bacon to toast just a little more.  Remove from the oven.

Crack your egg and separate out most of the egg white.  Drop eggs into the cups, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.  Place back in the oven and cook until white begins to set, about another 8-10 minutes.  The yolk should be creamy.  

Remove from the oven when done and pop out using a spoon.  Serve warm.
