How To Make Spinach, Ham and California Walnut Sunshine Cloud Eggs.

Fresh spinach adds colour and a boost of goodness, while salty ham brings richness and depth.

California walnuts add a gentle crunch and nutty warmth, balancing the softness of the eggs and raising the overall texture.

Cooked together, the egg whites puff up into cloud-like mounds, creating a light, airy base that contrasts beautifully with the creamy yolk at the center.

Did You Know:

Incorporating California Walnuts into meals is a simple, tasty and convenient way to add important nutrients to your diet.  

A 30g portion, approximately 11 walnuts, are high in Omega-3 fatty acids (ALA), important for heart health and may help reduce the risk of heart disease (1).  30g’s also offer 5.2g of protein and 1.8g of fibre (2).

Serving: 2 people

Ingredients:

  • 100g spinach 
  • 4 eggs 
  • 1 slice smoked ham, roughly chopped
  • 30g California walnuts, toasted and chopped
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped chives

Preparation:

  1. Firstly, preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 4.
  2. Wash the spinach, then wilt down in a saucepan (no need to add any extra water).
  3. Plunge the wilted spinach into cold water and drain through a colander. Squeeze out as much water as possible with your hands, scrunching the leaves up into a ball. Slice finely and put to one side.
  4. Separate the eggs, placing the yolks into a small bowl and the white into a large mixing bowl. Whisk the whites until you have stiff peaks, then fold in the spinach and ham.
  5. Line a baking tray with parchment and spoon the white mixture onto the tray to form four cloud shapes. Using a teaspoon make a small indentation in each, then carefully place one yolks into each cloud.
  6. Place into the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the white is tinged golden but the yolk is still runny.
  7. Sprinkle with the walnuts and chives to serve. Last but not least, enjoy.
