Swiss Chard With Egg and Cheese

Delicious and even decadent (and gluten free) breakfast below! (However, I may have had it for dinner last night!!)

Recipe for a single serving:

Ingredients:

5 Leaves of Swiss Chard (stems and leaves chopped separately and left in 2 piles)
1/4 Cup Onion, Chopped (approx)
1 Clove of Garlic, minced
1 Tsp. Olive Oil (Academia Barilla 100% Italian Unfiltered Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 750ml.)
1/4 Cup Cheese, Shredded (I used cheddar)
1 Whole Egg
1 Tsp. Butter

How To:

Preheat oven to 350. Rub butter on the inside (sides and bottom) of an individual sized ramekin ( "7-Ounce Stackable Ramekin in Cherry" ) to coat and keep dish from sticking. Next, sautee onions and swiss chard stems in olive oil over medium heat until they start to soften but not brown. Add in garlic then swiss chard leaves. Mix and turn until well combined. Let cook for a few minutes, flipped and mixing ingredients every 30 seconds or so until the swiss chard leaves have cooked down. Then, turn off stove and immediately add (almost all of) the cheese to the vegetable mixture. Stir till combined. Place vegetable and cheese mixture into the buttered ramekin, spread evenly in the dish. Crack the egg on top and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cook in preheated oven for somewhere between 14-20 minutes (depending on how you want your egg yoke done). For example: I cook mine 18-20 minutes because I like my yoke cooked well. Carefully remove from oven and serve immediately right in the ramekin, perhaps with a piece of buttered (gluten free if you are me) toast! Delicious!

Enjoy!!!
