Main Ingredients
- 3 mini pumpkins
- 3 eggs
- 3 slices cheddar cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, thoroughly wash the 3 mini pumpkins under running water. Place the washed pumpkins in a microwave-safe dish and microwave for about 3-5 minutes to slightly soften them. This step will make it much easier to scoop out the insides later.
Step 2
While the pumpkins are in the microwave, prepare the other ingredients for your egg slut. You will need 3 eggs, 3 slices of cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella or pizza cheese (as much as you like), a pinch of salt, a pinch of black pepper, and some dried parsley (or your favorite herb). If you use herbs other than parsley, you can enjoy a different flavor profile.
Step 3
Be very careful when taking the pumpkins out of the microwave, as they will be hot! Using a knife, carefully slice off the top portion of each pumpkin. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and stringy bits from the center. You want to create a hollow cavity, like a small bowl.
Step 4
Gently crack one egg into each of the hollowed-out mini pumpkins, being careful not to break the yolk. Once the eggs are in, use a fork to lightly break the yolks. Breaking the yolk will help it mix with other ingredients and cook evenly.
Step 5
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and a little black pepper over the eggs. Then, gently mix the egg white and yolk with a fork. You don’t need to mix vigorously; a light stir is sufficient.
Step 6
Tear the cheddar cheese slices into smaller pieces and scatter them over the eggs. Then, generously sprinkle the shredded mozzarella or pizza cheese on top. Place the filled mini pumpkins back into a microwave-safe dish and microwave for another 5 minutes. Cooking times can vary depending on your microwave’s power, so it’s best to check the eggs and cheese to ensure they are cooked through and melted to your liking. The eggs should be set, and the cheese should be bubbly.
Step 7
Once the eggs are cooked and the cheese is melted and bubbly, carefully remove the mini pumpkin egg sluts from the microwave. Finally, sprinkle a little dried parsley or herbs on top for garnish. Your delicious and visually appealing Mini Pumpkin Egg Slut is ready to be enjoyed! It’s best served warm.
