Ham, Cheese & Egg stuffed tomato

Why is breakfast so important?

If you have a healthy breakfast, you're less likely to indulge in unhealthy snacks during the day. Having breakfast ensures you have important nutrients and energy and it helps kick start your metabolism.

This morning I had some stuffed tomatoes - really simple and you can plan ahead and prep 2 or 3 days' worth in advance.

At only 4pp per serve it's a winner!

Happy Monday!

Recipe: Serves 2 

Ingredients:
1 egg
100 g Don English Ham 97% fat free
2 x medium tomato
20g Swiss or tasty cheese
Half a can weight watchers baked beans.

Method:

Cut a hole at the top of the tomato, using a spoon scoop out the seeds and flesh (save these to add to your pasta sauce etc.)

Line the tomato with a piece of ham.

Crack the egg and whisk with a fork. Pour half the egg into the tomato.

Top the eggy tomato with a small piece of cheese. I used Swiss, however tasty or parmesan would be great too.

Place tomatoes on a lined baking tray and bake for 15 mins on 200c or until the egg has set and the cheese is bubbling.

Serve with weight watchers baked beans and an additional slice of ham.

NB: If you have some additional points you can use, add a slice of multigrain bread for an extra 2pp.

Enjoy!
