Why this works

A hearty, protein-rich pasta bake that is fairly energy-dense and higher in saturated fat and sodium, so best enjoyed as a substantial meal rather than a light option.

Good protein content. Eggs, Greek yoghurt and cheese provide a useful amount of complete protein for satiety and muscle repair.

Source of B vitamins and selenium. Mushrooms contribute B vitamins and selenium, which support energy metabolism and antioxidant defences.

Higher sodium and saturated fat. The added salt and cheese push sodium and saturated fat up, which is worth noting for heart health.

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C (Fan 180°C, 392°F, Gas Mark 6).
Cook the pasta in a large pan of salted water until just al dente, then drain and set aside.
Heat a little plain cooking oil in a frying pan and cook the mushrooms until browned and any liquid has evaporated.
In a bowl, whisk together the Greek yoghurt and half of the grated cheese, then season well with salt and black pepper.
Stir the cooked pasta and mushrooms together, then mix through the yoghurt sauce until evenly coated.
Transfer to a baking dish and make 4 small wells in the top. Crack an egg into each well.
Scatter over the remaining cheese and bake for 18–22 minutes, until the eggs are just set and the top is bubbling and golden.
Leave to stand for 5 minutes before serving.
