I know it sounds crazy, but some schools have reallyyy good cafeteria food! My school has really good.... books. The DH, for dining hall, as we call it, has improved drastically since I arrived my freshman year, and wow does it still stink. Bad food or worse food, however, they have a mean breakfast squad. Moreover, they make the best omelettes. DH omelettes made me like omelettes! I always get egg whites with onion, bacon, and mozzarella. Ok, so their ingredients aren't of the widest variety. But that's why it's so fun to take recipes home! Only problem is, omelettes aren't exactly the easiest things to make. First of all, you need some badass teflon, and as a broke college kid, I simply don't have access to such luxuries. What I do have is a kind of okay teflon muffin tin. Let me tell you--not as random and useless as it sounds. May I introduce you to.........
THE MUFFIN TIN OMELETTE!
You will need:
A pack of deli ham (you can use prosciutto or something nicer than deli ham, but like I said, broke.)
Diced onion (your favorite kind. Mine is yellow.)
Chopped chives (or scallions. They're tastier, but a little big for the muffin tin.)
Eggs
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Salt & pepper
Preheat the oven to 350ยบ.
Line your muffin tin with one slice of ham in each hole and then crack an egg into each "ham cup." Then, simply sprinkle your toppings (cheese, onion, and chives) into the cups/onto the egg. Pop 'em in the oven, and pull 'em out when the eggs are cooked to your liking! You can test their done-ness by jiggling the tin with an oven mitt or tongs. You definitely want the egg white part to be white, as opposed to translucent, but other than that, the choice is yours! As are the toppings, of course!
YUM! Happy breakfast!
Until your time again finds mine,
Julia
