Sunny side up

Today's brunch was inspired by The brunch bunch. I didn't really read the recipe but just saw the images and made it work. It's one of those meals that I could taste and enjoy in my mind looooong before even purchasing the ingredients. It was also very quick and easy to make.




Ingredients
  • Ciabatta bread (sliced in half)
  • 1/2 bunch spinach (washed and roughly chopped)
  • 1/2 large onion
  • 1 cup of rindless streaky bacon
  • 1 1/2 cups brown mushrooms (washed and sliced)
  • 2 cups grated cheese (I used cheddar)
  • 4 eggs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil


Method
  • Preheat your oven to 200C
  • Sau sliced onion in a frying pan until soft
  • Add the chopped spinach and cook for approximately 3 minutes
  • Add mushrooms, salt and pepper and cook for a further 3-4 minutes
  • In a separate pan, fry bacon until crispy
  • On a baking tray, place the bread and drizzle lightly with olive oil
  • Place the cooked spinach and mushrooms and try to cover as much of the bread as possible
  • Do the same with the bacon and grated cheese
  • Place in the oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes (the cheese should melt completely and bread crispy on the sides)
  • In the meantime, fry eggs in a pan, sunny side up
  • Once bread is ready, slice into quarters and place an egg on each quarter
Each quarter should be more than enough for one but my food buddy had seconds... :-)
