Vegetarian Egg Boat
Description
This recipe uses a whole sourdough bread loaf hollowed out to create a cavity for the filling. The filling is a blend of eggs mixed with milk, chopped bell pepper, mushrooms, red onions, and half of the shredded mozzarella, seasoned to taste. The mixture is poured into the bread and topped with the remaining cheese. Baking at 350°F for 30-35 minutes cooks the eggs until set while the bread rim holds its shape.
The resulting dish combines soft, creamy baked eggs with the texture of melt-in-your-mouth cheese and diced vegetables, all contained within the crusty bread loaf. Garnished with fresh parsley and served with sliced cherry tomatoes, it serves as an eye-catching vegetarian entree or brunch centerpiece.
Leftovers can be stored airtight in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days but are best enjoyed fresh. Slicing and serving immediately after baking preserves the optimal texture.
