Another budget recipe from black-saturn

OK I promised this recipe before the thread got closed so I will start a new thread for it.

These are oven baked omelettes and they will cost about 75p per head (depending on how cheap you can find the ingredients).

Oven Baked Omelettes

Ingredients
6 eggs beaten
2 oz cheese grated
3 cherry tomatos (or 1 regular tomato cut into 6)
1 rasher bacon but into tiny pieces (easiest to do this with scissors)
Enough Margarine to grease a tin

Method
Preheat the oven to gas mark 5.
Grease a 6 piece bun tin.
Add half a cherry tomato or 1 piece of tomato to every bit of the bun tin (dont know how to word it but one in the place you would normally put cake mix),
Sprinke on some grated cheese and then some bacon,
Pour the beaten egg over the top and bake in the oven until the mixture is set.

Nice with chips or as part of a packed lunch.

    Could someone post a picture of a bun tin. If not how big are they and what shape? How many would this feed?

    I only have a muffin tin so perhaps that is too deep or just I'd get less for my six eggs.

    Aha- thanks SmileyMum. We call that a patty cake tin. I just couldn't figure out what sort of tins you would cook buns in :confused:So these would make individual servings. Two each etc. Gotcha ya now.
