My husband and I have been wanting some lighter breakfast fare which doesn’t include meats, sausages or bacon as either a side or a component in the dish. To satisfy this, I used a portobello mushroom as my base. Keeping with the theme for the recipe, I added wilted spinach and a small amount of goat cheese just before topping each mushroom with an egg and baking it in the oven.

Portobellos have a dense texture and earthy flavor which makes them a great base for this baked egg and it also pairs well with the creamy goat cheese and wilted spinach.  This recipe is perfect for most occasions and can be used for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. These are extremely easy to make, can be made many at once on a single sheet pan [paid link] for a crowd, and are quite impressive on the plate.We served these eggs along with toast points for dipping and fresh seasonal fruit. My family loved it so much we are having this again over the weekend for our weekly Sunday Brunch.
