18.1.2 Egg Bites

Here is a aluminum bead sous vide based on the Starbuck recipe:

4 eggs

4 tablespoons cottage cheese

1/4 cup Monterey Jack Cheese shredded

1/4 cup Gruyere cheese shredded

1/4 teaspoon salt

4 pieces thin bacon cooked crisp

1/4 cup Gruyere cheese shredded, use to broil

75C/167F 35 minutes.

I blended 4 eggs, 4 tablespoons cottage cheese, 1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, 1/4 cup shredded Gruyere cheese, and salt in my Vitamix until it is a uniform mixture.

I sprayed six wide mouthed 1/4 pint canning jars with a non-stick spray and broke up a piece of bacon into each jar, before filling them with the mixture. 

After wiping the rim and installing the lids, I buried them in the aluminum beads preheated to 75C/167F and cooked them for 35 minutes. 

After they were done, I sprinkled additional shredded Gruyere cheese on top, and broiled them until they just turn brown.

Grayfox and I each ate one immediately and stored the balance in the fridge with the lids on.  A nice quick breakfast after a minute in the microwave to heat it back up.
