Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

PREHEAT oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin with coconut oil or ghee and set aside.
BRAISE your kale by adding ghee, chopped kale and sea salt to a medium saute pan and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes or until wilted. Once done, remove the kale from the stove and arrange on a large serving platter. The kale serves as a swamp for your swamp creatures to rest on.
ADD eggs, sea salt, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, scallion and white pepper to a mixing bowl and whisk until well combined.
POUR 1/3 cup of egg batter into each greased muffin cup. If you run out of batter, simply fill any empty muffin cups with a little water. Bake in the heated oven for 12-15 minutes.
REMOVE from the oven and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes (the egg muffins will deflate during this time). Once cool, remove from the muffin tin and place upside down at a 45 degree angle over the braised kale.
CREATE swamp creature faces by placing two halved radish slices on each egg and a piece of minced scallion in the center of each radish. Cut tiny slits out of additional radish halves to use as mouths (you do not have to create slits for the mouths, but it does add a festive touch). Add sunflower sprouts as hair above the eyes.
ENJOY as a spooky and fun breakfast, for for a nourishing meal any time of the day.
