6-8
ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- 1 3⁄4 cups shredded gruyere cheese (about 5 ounces)
- 2⁄3 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 medium shallots, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
- 6 -8 ounces Canadian bacon, small dice
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leave, finely chopped
directions
- Preheat broiler to high.
- Whisk together eggs, 1 1/4 cups of the cheese, milk and salt until smooth. Set aside.
- Melt butter in olive oil in a large, oven-safe frying pan, over medium-high heat. When butter foams, add shallots and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until shallots soften, about 3 minutes. Add Canadian bacon and thyme, and cook another 3 minutes, stirring only once or twice, until bacon is browned.
- Pour eggs in pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until the eggs are set 1" from the edge of the pan, about 10-15 minutes. Sprinkle remaining cheese evenly over the surface of the eggs and place under broiler, until puffy, golden-brown and set in the middle, 4-5 minutes.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013.
After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
