Recipe: Ciabatta breakfast sandwiches
With zucchini baked eggs, chipotle aioli, and turkey bacon
Batched a ton to go in the freezer and air-fry whenever we have busy mornings - adding arugula or whatever lettuce I have after!
The Recipe:
Total Time: 35 minutes
Serves: 6-8
The contents:
Ciabatta bread
Zucchini baked eggs
Turkey bacon
A few slices of turkey
Chipotle aioli
Pepper jack cheese
The zucchini baked eggs (same technique as my egg bites):
6 eggs
1 cup cottage cheese
1 zucchini, grated
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly cracked pepper
Chipotle Aioli:
3 tbsp mayo
2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1 tbsp of the adobo sauce
2 tbsp greek yogurt
dash of honey
Optional: water to thin out
Let’s get cooking:
For the baked eggs: Preheat oven to 325F. Grate the zucchini with a cheese grater (or whatever is easiest for you, goal is to make it like shredded cheese sized). To a blender or food processor, add your eggs, cottage cheese, seasonings, and grated zucchini. Add to your nonstick or greased up baking tray. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes at least before cutting up.
Prepare your turkey bacon: I did mine in the air fryer at 400F for 10 minutes.
And assemble!
I’ve been really into sneaking veggies into where I can, so I added grated zucchini into my egg bite recipe - keeping them in square form for prepped breakfast sandwiches! This is inspired by a neighborhood breakfast spot that has a sandwich called the California Club. I decided to prep a few for the freezer to heat up on-the-go vs. spending $18 each visit.
Let me know if you make this too!
