Why this works
Protein-rich and very low in carbohydrate, but relatively high in saturated fat and sodium due to the smoked salmon and cheese.
High-quality protein. Eggs, smoked salmon and cheese provide a substantial amount of complete protein, supporting muscle maintenance and satiety.
Sodium is notable. Smoked salmon and cheese contribute a fairly high sodium level, which may be a concern for anyone monitoring blood pressure or salt intake.
Contains vitamin D and B12. Eggs and salmon are useful sources of vitamin B12, with some vitamin D from eggs and oily fish.
Method
- Preheat the oven to 190°C (Fan 170°C, 374°F, Gas Mark 5) and lightly butter a small baking dish.
- Whisk the eggs with the milk in a bowl until smooth.
- Stir in most of the cheese and fold through the smoked salmon, tearing it into bite-size pieces.
- Pour the mixture into the dish and scatter the remaining cheese over the top.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes until just set and lightly golden.
- Rest for a few minutes before serving warm.
