Warm breakfast casseroles: A recipe to brighten chilly mornings

The mornings are becoming chillier, and I dream of a warm breakfast. I returned to my tried-and-tested recipe for quick casseroles, for which I used yesterday's bread rolls. I add an egg and chives to them. With this simple and delicious dish, even a dull day starts better.

Preparing this treat takes just a few minutes; you can manage it even if you don't have much time in the morning. While the casseroles are in the oven, you can still slice a tomato or cucumber. Vegetables pair excellently with this casserole.

Have you got some rolls left over from the previous day? It's an excellent opportunity to try this recipe. Regular wheat rolls will work, but you can also use other types of bread. Hollow out the rolls to make room for an egg. Do this carefully to avoid puncturing the rolls, as the egg could leak out. Spread some butter inside, and you can also add a bit of grated cheese. Do you have a few slices of cold cuts in the refrigerator? Thinly slice them and add them to the rolls as well. Eggs also taste great with salmon, tomato, or broccoli so that you can vary the additions.

Crack the eggs into the prepared rolls. Place them in a preheated oven and bake until the eggs have the consistency you prefer. The yolk can remain slightly runny or be well-set. It's worth sprinkling the finished casseroles with some fresh herbs. Chives or dill work best.

This zero-waste-style breakfast is highly nutritious. This is thanks to the eggs, often recommended by dietitians specifically for the first part of the day. When you choose eggs for a morning meal, you're providing yourself with a substantial portion of protein, giving you energy and keeping you satisfied for a long time. As a result, the tendency to snack will significantly decrease. Moreover, eggs are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, giving you the strength to face the day's challenges.
