Steps to make Portuguese Baked Eggs:

  6. I used a pie plate here but a skillet works too. Spray Pam over the pie plate/skillet.
  7. Transfer the vegetable-mix to the plate and form 6 tiny wells with the help of a scoop or a spoon. In each well add a dollop of ricotta and an egg.
  8. Decorate as you would like to. I placed a few slices of tomato.
  9. Sprinkle salt and pepper over each egg-well and cover the entire plate with a generous layer of grated Parmesan.
  10. Bake for 20-22 minutes for a little runny yolks and about 40 minutes for well-done eggs and a golden-crisp layer of Parmesan cheese, just the way I like it! Serve hot with some bread, toasted or not as you would like.
