Keto Kimchi Ham and Egg Cups

Using cured meats is a great way to form cups to hold in baked eggs (and add extra protein) to the meal. Keto Kimchi Ham and Egg Cups are made by lining a muffin tin with soppressata then cracking a fresh egg into the middle of each. The eggs are seasoned with salt and diced kimchi for spice and flavor. Post bake, they are topped with freshly sliced scallion. The baked cups are perfect for grab-and-go breakfast and hold up well to reheating.

Do I have to use kimchi?

No, you do not have to use kimchi.

What kind of cured meat can I use?

Most cured meats have similar macros, so feel free to use hard salami, prosciutto ham, capocollo, and more.

What type of eggs is best to use?

The best types of eggs to use are pasture-raised eggs, as they tend to be fresher and higher in Omega-3 fatty acids than conventional eggs.

    It was okay. Egg was dried and the ham I used an Open Nature brand from Safeway was super salty... so adding kimchi on top made it double salty... This did somewhat satisfy my kimchi cravings, but the egg was dried and just not a fan.

      Maybe don’t microwave for so long?

    I tried something new and I’ve discovered I’m not an egg with kimchi fan. The recipe was simple to follow and took minimal effort, but I will not make again.
