She Mixed An Egg With Bread In A Cup, And The Result Had Me Drooling

You’re hungry around lunch time, but just don’t have the time or ingredients to make something healthy. Instead, you reach for junk food. It’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s effortless. I get it.

However, what if I told you that you could apply the same lack of effort to making something good for you?

Watch as Rebecca takes us through the simple steps of making a delicious little quiche in a mug. It’s so easy to make, and it can be ready to eat in about three short minutes. It’s full of healthy fresh greens, tomatoes, egg, and just oozes melted cheese. Perhaps the best thing about it is how there is hardly anything to wash up after you’re done.

If you want to make one for yourself (and lets face it, you do), we attached the recipe below, courtesy of the good people at Mumsnet.

Ingredients
1 teaspoon butter, 1 egg, 1 1/2 tbsps whole milk, pinch of salt and pepper, 2 tbsp of grated cheddar, 1 slice of bread, torn into small pieces.

Whatever else you like to fill it with! Rebecca chose cherry tomatoes (4, quartered), a small handful of spinach and 2 chopped spring onions. You could add ham or cooked bacon here.

Recipe
1. Put the butter in your mug and pop in the microwave for ten seconds to melt it. Whisk the egg in your mug, then add the milk, cheese, salt, pepper and whichever greens or other fillings you like!

2. Add torn-up bread to the top until it’s covered, and give it a prod down so that it gets coated in egg – this will help the quiche keep shape.

3. Bung in the microwave for 3 to 3 and a half minutes. You’ll know it’s done when you can score around the edges of the mug and see that the quiche comes away in one piece.

4. The fun bit! Grab a plate and flip your mug upside down. Tap the top until you hear the quiche drop, hold for just a few seconds and then lift the mug away slowly – and VOILA.
