Courtesy of National Pork Board 4 Servings • 20 Min. Prep Time • 15 Min. Cook TimeIngredients |
---|
1/3 c. fully cooked boneless ham, finely chopped |
4 (1/2-in.) slices soft white sandwich bread, crusts removed |
2 Tbsp. butter, softened |
1/2 c. frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry |
2 oz. reduced-fat cream cheese, softened |
3 Tbsp. Parmesan cheese, freshly grated |
1 tsp. 2% milk |
1/2 tsp. garlic powder |
4 medium eggs |
fresh ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Press white bread with palm of hand until flat and doughy, and butter both sides. Gently place in 2 1/2-in. muffin cups or 4-oz. ramekins, pressing to form 4 individual tartlet crusts.
2. Mix spinach, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, milk, and garlic powder in small bowl; set aside.
3. To assemble tarts: divide ham among the 4 bread cups in muffin cups, crack 1 egg into each tartlet crust, season with pepper, and top with a generous spoonful of spinach mixture. Bake in oven for 12-14 min. or until egg whites are firm, but yolks are still moist. Cool slightly. If using muffin cups, remove from cups to serve.
