Fast, easy and tasty. A great starting point and a lot you can do with it. I added chopped cooked bacon to the bottom with a layer of chedder cheese then followed the directions as listed. I did add 5 minutes to the bake time as I like my whites firm. Served with fresh baked bread that we toasted and hot coffee.

This was ohhh so good. The bowl was slathered with butter then I crumbled bacon to the bottom of the bowl and added my eggs. You have to be careful with this step because the sharp edges of the crumbled bacon almost deflated one of my yolks. I used 3 because they were small fresh farm eggs. Added the parmesan and cream and cooked for 20 minutes. They tasted wonderful, however, the white of the eggs didn't get cooked enough for my taste towards the middle, and when I make these again (and I surely will) I will cook this for 25 minutes. Rich decadent enjoyment of one of my favorite foods. Thank you, SeriousMoms, for posting.

This egg dish was really lovely. We enjoyed it for breakfast with toasted rosemary foccia, cherry tomatoes and bacon. The eggs were runny, just the way we like them. I loved the quickness and ease of the dish. Best of all its made from common ingredients found in most kitchens. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

Wow, this was amazing! I didn't have the ramekins, so I used a small 4-cup casserole dish, increased the recipe by 50% (i.e., 6 eggs instead of 4), and increased the bake time to about 40 minutes. Since it didn't have heavy cream, I substituted half-and-half. I added about 2 tbsp ham and a strip of crumbled bacon to the bottom as well. It was so yummy!

Well, my real name is Brenda, and I am a stay at home mom of 3 boys (ages 6, 5, and 4) and 1 baby girl. I homeschool my boys during the day, and I enjoy cooking with them. I love cooking and trying new things. I like fast, easy recipes for dinner, but I also like more complicated, elegant dishes. We entertain often, so I am always looking for something new to fix. I sent several recipes into the Pillbsbury Bakeoff Contest a few years ago, so I spent a month or so inventing recipes. I will post those here soon. :) I have a son who was born 3 months premature (26 weeks gestation) and is now too skiney (at 6 years old) and sensetive to the texture of his food. I always like finding high calorie foods that he will actually eat!
In my "spare time" (ok, 1 night per week!), I design and maintain a website: SeriousMoms.com. I LOVE this site. I look forward to working on it every week. I've made several pages on my site that link to many Zaar recipes--like my Cupcakes page, and my Christmas Gift Ideas, and Recipes for Romantic Dates at Home. :)
Lately, I've been enjoying "The Sneaky Chef" with my kids. It WORKS! :) They like all of the recipes so far!!
For fun, I also enjoy scrapbooking. I'm currently working on my daughter's baby album.
We love adoption! We've adopted 2 of our kids--Noah (3) and Ruby (our baby). It's not always easy, we have struggles (we didn't get Noah 'til he was 14 months, so he has a lot of anger built up in him), but we love it nonetheless. It is a blessing to us to be able to see these kids grow, and to not know what they're going to look like or be like, and to just fall in love with how different they are from us & how those traits never could've come from us. :)
