Portobello Mushroom Baked Eggs 3 Ways

Portobello Mushrooms Baked Eggs 3 Ways is surprisingly easy, yet full of flavour dish that will please a crowd. Pick your favourite flavour or mix it up if serving for brunch. Goat’s cheese and Dill, Leek and Prosciutto, and Tomato Avocado are all irresistible! 

This recipe is actually the idea from one of my almost 4-year-old twins. We walked by the Portobello mushrooms at the grocery store and since she’s obsessed with mushrooms, we stopped and looked at the different varieties. I’ve never made Portobello Mushrooms for her before so she picked one up and asked if I could get it and make it for her. I gladly said yes. She suggested we have it with eggs and the idea was born.

It all started with this version above, Goat’s Cheese and Dill. A perfect Spring flavour to awaken taste buds at breakfast or brunch. Creamy goat’s cheese with the right amount of cheesy tang, paired with fresh vibrant dill that complements the baked egg without overpowering it.

Leek and prosciutto is one of my favourite flavour combinations. Subtle onion/garlic flavour from the leeks with salty thin and crispy prosciutto. You could dive right into bacon town here, but I love how prosciutto gives a big impact with very little effort and amount.

I feel like this version is my little West Coast baby. Can’t go wrong with a little avocado and tomato action in my opinion.

I served the portobello eggs with this fruit salad and english muffins. Oh and coffee! What’s breakfast (or brunch) without coffee? Coffee = life around here and sometimes I make it my personal mission to drink as much coffee as I can on the weekends. Gotta stay fresh for staying up 30 minutes later than usual! 😉

All 3 of these Portobello Baked Eggs would make for a perfect Mother’s Day brunch. Visually they make a great impact, but are fairly hands off and easy to whip up. Serve with a bouquet of flowers for the win.

Happy brunching friends!
