Eggs in Clouds For Breakfast

If the name isn’t enough to catch your attention the taste of this will. It’s called eggs in clouds for a reason. Stiff white peaks from whipped egg whites mixed with a happy marriage of crumbled bacon, cheese and chives form the base of this wonderful, wonderful creation. It’s puffy. It’s dreamy. It’s like biting into a cloud.

And if that isn’t enough, the lonely egg yolks are nestled beautifully in the middle of these clouds and baked until just set.


It’s the perfect breakfast.

And you don’t have to be a Care Bear to enjoy it.
