Gangsta! Breakfast Bread bowl

Gangsta! Breakfast Breadbowl

This recipe was inspired by a breakfast bowl made by Andrew Zimmerman. My version combines Cuban and Italian flavor.

4 Chiabatta Rolls

3 Tablespoons of Gangsta! Roasted Tomato Pesto

1 Tablespoon Pepper

1 Tablespoon Salt

¼ Cup Milk

6 Eggs

1 Roma Tomato, diced

2-3 Sprigs of basil, sliced into thin strips

Grated Smoked Apple Gruyer cheese, or smoked cheese of your choice

Pre-heat oven to 350

Core the rolls to create a bowl. You can discard the core or crumble and toast for a garnish later.

In a bowl, add the Roasted Tomato Pesto, salt, pepper, milk, and eggs. Whisk until well combined. Gently stir in the basil, 3 Tbsp of cheese.

Put the cored rolls on a baking tray. Place a layer of tomato across the bottom of the bread bowls.  Carefully pour the egg mixture in each bread bowl. The egg mixture should reach the top of each bowl.

Add cheese across the top of the bowl.

Bake for 25-30 minutes.

Let’s be creative! What other ways can we make these bread bowls? Wifey is thinking smaller rolls to use in a breakfast buffet or topping with bacon bits.
