Pammie's Egg Cups

After a long day all I wanted was something warm and comforting to eat. I love egg cups so I made these today, try them, they are delicious.

My recipe for Pammie's Egg Cups

Defrost a sheet of puff pastry dough, cut into 12 squares and place each square in a greased muffin cup. Add 1/2 piece of turkey or ham lunch meat, too with shredded cheddar cheese, in a bowl mix 3 eggs, 4 T heavy whipping cream, salt and pepper and 2 T melted butter, mix well and pour evenly into the 12 muffin cups. Place in a 400 degree oven and bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown and puffed. Serve with some fresh fruit and enjoy!

Sitting all alone today watching the snow fall so delicately. The backyard looks like a winter wonderland. This kind of weather always inspires me to come up with a new dish. Enjoy the risotto.

The recipe for my risotto is as follows:

In a large stock pot bring 2 c. water, 1 T. chicken base to a simmer and add 1 c. Arborio rice and cook over low heat, add more liquid as needed. Add 1 c. Pinot Grigio and continue to cook until creamy. 

In a sauté pan over medium low heat add 1 T. butter, 6 pieces bacon chopped up, 10 Brussel sprouts sliced, 3T. water, cook until tender, add 1 can chopped artichoke hearts and 1 c. craisins. Add to the cooked risotto.
