Prep-ahead Breakfast Bagels
These breakfast bagels are stacked with scrambled eggs, cheese and pesto and can be meal prepped for a high protein start to your day.
Introduction
These banging bagels present a dilemma. Once the aroma of green pesto mingles with the red onion, eggs and cheese combo, it’s just screaming at you to eat it. But this is meal prep, so how do you manage not to? It’s a struggle team, I admit it. And sometimes it’s one I don’t win. Seriously though, these are a great option if you’re prepping ahead for an early start the next day, or you just want a plentiful supply of something healthy that you can grab and go.
Ingredients

50ml | semi-skimmed milk |

Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C fan/gas 4. Line a small, square baking tray with greaseproof paper.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk, tomatoes, onion, salt and pepper and whisk everything together.
Pour the egg mixture into the lined baking tray, then place in the hot oven and bake for 10–12 minutes. Once set, remove the tray from the oven and leave the baked eggs to cool completely.
Split open the bagels and spread each bottom half with some of the pesto. Cut the baked eggs into four squares, then place one square on the bottom half of each bagel, followed by a cheese slice. Pop the lids on the bagels, then wrap each one individually in foil.
Store in the fridge and consume within 2–3 days.
To reheat the bagels, place them in a 190°C/170°C fan/gas 5 oven for 10 minutes, still wrapped in foil. Once warm, unwrap and serve.
