Baked eggs with goat cheese, sweet potato & veggies - these breakfast pots have everything you need to get your day off on the right foot. Satisfyingly packed with flavour you can now venture out into the cold and take on the world……or whatever your morning holds.
The recipe below is actually vegetarian, but you can easily make it vegan by substituting the cream for coconut milk (taking out the goat cheese as well) and adding chickpeas to the veggie mixture instead of eggs, or alternatively make it non-vegetarian by introducing sausage or bacon to the dish.
The recipe is also for 4 individual breakfast pots, but alternatively (and probably easier) there is nothing stopping you from just making this is one big pan and then splitting up into individual portions.
Also for ease the filling can also be made the night before and then all you have to do in the morning is crack some eggs on top and throw them in the oven. The spice factor of the harissa is taken down quite a bit by the addition of the cream so it is not overpowering (thinking of those sensitive morning tummies) but it does give you a nice pep in your step.
