Keto Cotija Shirred Eggs

This very simple dish would work well for breakfast, brunch or a quick dinner alternative. Fresh eggs are cracked into buttered ramekins and baked to gooey-yolk perfection. They are topped with crumbled cotija and a drizzle of heavy cream.

    Delicious recipe, but next time use 1/2 the cotija cheese ingredients and let it cook longer.
