Can I use a different cheese?

Yes! I think parmesan cheese would make a fabulous alternative. You could also try a shredded cheddar.

What is the best pan to use?

The best pan to use for these crispy feta cheese eggs is a small nonstick pan. If you do not use a nonstick pan it is very likely that the cheese will stick, burn, or just become a mess as it melts.

Are feta eggs healthy?

I am not a dietician or nutritionist, but in my opinion yes! I think they are a great breakfast option. Eggs themselves are considered nature's multivitamin. They contain around 70 calories and 6 grams of protein. Eggs are also a good source of vitamins A & D, choline, and healthy fats. You can add extra complex carbohydrates and fiber to this morning meal as well if you choose to serve the feta cheese eggs on top of whole grain toast with avocado. The tortilla is a fine option, but it won't add quite as many nutrients to your breakfast! Pair one of the tacos with fresh berries and chicken breakfast sausage and you have an even more well rounded, satisfying meal!

How To Make Crispy Feta Fried Eggs (Viral Recipe!)

Description

Salty, savory Fried Feta Eggs are a true breakfast game changer! In 5 minutes you’ll have the perfect egg with crispy, cheesy edges, fully set whites, and a rich, runny yolk. Serve on a warmed tortilla with avocado and fresh chives for a quick and flavorful meal!

Ingredients

Scale

1 egg
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tortilla, taco sized
Avocado
Fresh chives
Salt
Pepper
Cooking spray, or oil

Instructions

First heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add cooking spray, or a bit of olive oil. Once the pan is hot, add the crumbled feta cheese. Arrange the feta cheese into a circle with a hole in the middle for the egg.
Once the melted feta starts to bubble, crack an egg into the center. The egg should take about 5 minutes to cook – the whites fully set with a runny yolk. See my Expert Tips section above for tips on how to get the perfect crispy fried eggs.
Meanwhile, heat the tortilla. Add cooking spray or oil to another pan over medium-high heat. Place the tortilla in the hot pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. You could alternatively heat over an open flame on a gas stove or just in the microwave.
To the warmed tortilla add a spread of avocado. Then place the crispy fried feta egg on top. Add salt, black pepper, and fresh chives.
Serve and enjoy!
