Perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner!
Ingredients
  • 300 g dry pasta
  • ⅓ cup butter
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • ⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 4 slices deli ham, thinly sliced, or 8 slices cooked, chopped bacon
  • Palmful chopped fresh parsley
  • ½ cup grated Cheddar cheese
  • 4 large eggs
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Cook pasta to al dente according to package directions.
  3. Meanwhile, melt butter in saucepan or large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Whisk in chicken stock, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.
  4. Stir in ham and parsley, then toss with cooked pasta, coating thoroughly. If not using an oven-safe skillet, transfer mixture to a lightly greased 2 qt casserole dish.
  5. Crack eggs evenly over top (feel free to use more eggs if your family loves 'em!) and sprinkle with Cheddar cheese.
  6. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes, until egg whites are set but yolks are still jiggly.
Notes
For a brunch dish, this would be delicious with hash browns in place of the pasta. I loved this one it's own, but if you want to kick things up this is also good served with salsa or your favourite hot sauce!
