Ham and Egg Cups

In this recipe we have used a lean luncheon ham as it has less fat than the usual streaky bacon so you will save yourself a heap of calories by making the switch. As you know we are a big fan of eggs and this is just another brilliant way to add the super food in to your meal plan this week.

Also feel free to add your own spices or free veg (diced spring onion or red pepper would also be a nice pairing with this recipe.)

We have paired the egg cups with a light green salad, if you are fan of balsamic vinegar, we would suggest adding 2 tsps over your greens for extra flavour.
