Thousand Island Eggs

Cooks' Note

This dish can be cooled and still enjoyed. Simply warm the egg in a microwave for 30 seconds and serve with a few tablespoons of cooked vegetables or a few thick slices of salted ripe tomatoes drizzled with balsamic vinegar. This dish is excellent for a midnight snack, or early morning breakfast.

Ingredients

1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped stuffed olives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup ketchup
Pinch of garlic salt
Dash of hot pepper sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

    Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 400°F.

    Step 3

    Put 1 teaspoon butter in each of four ramekins or baking cups, and put the ramekins in the oven to melt the butter quickly.
