- Chop the chives into small pieces. Set aside.
- Grate the cheeses and add into the mixture. Add seasoning, chives, hot sauce, and butter. Blend smooth.
- Add water to the bottom of your poaching pan. Then, turn to medium-high heat. Press 3/4 - 1 slice of bacon in the bottom of each well.
- Once the water underneath is streaming steadily, turn heat down to medium. Fill each well with the egg mixture, covering the bacon at the bottom. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the centers do not jiggle.
Red Pepper & Spinach
