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
• Sauté 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... :-)
