Have you ever used a tomato as an egg holder? Well, if you haven’t, listen carefully because you can try something new! This breakfast was super simple and took 2 minutes of prep time, maybe less. Then, I placed it in the oven at 350F for 30 minutes and let the good times roll.

Ingredients:

• 1 large tomato, stem and insides removed
• 1 egg
• pinch of fresh basil
• salt, pepper

Directions:

1. Remove stem from top of tomato and with a knife, carefully cut out the center of the tomato – make sure not to cut through the skin of the tomato because the egg will leak through.
2. Crack egg and place in well of tomato.
3. Bake 350F for 30 minutes or until egg is fully set.
4. Sprinkle with basil, salt, pepper and anything else you like with your eggs.
5. ENJOY!

These breakfast cookies resemble a cookie but you won’t hesitate when eating one in the AM once you hear the ingredients. I like trying new things in the morning for breakfast. I enjoy oatmeal, pancakes, yogurt, cereal, fruit, eggs and chocolate. Oops, I mean chocolate chips in my granola. What is your favorite breakfast?
