Eggs in Clouds

This is another one of those pinterest recipes and I am completely aware that the name is super cheesy but whatever, it is, what it is! Again it would more be classified as "low-carb" rather than paleo but you can omit the cheese and you are well on your way. You could vary the ingredients to make it different each time!

4 eggs
1/4 cup grated pecorino-romano (I didn't have any so just used cheddar)
1/4 cup chopped chives
1/4 cup crumbled bacon
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Pepper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Separate eggs, putting whites in 1 large bowl and yolks in 4 separate small bowls. Whip whites until stiff peaks form. I used my kitchen aide mixer because its wonderful and why wouldn't I? 

Fold in cheese, chives, garlic powder and bacon. Spoon into 4 mounds on parchment-lined baking sheet; make a deep well in center of each. Bake at 450 degrees for 3 minutes. Remove from oven, add 1 yolk to each well; season with pepper and bake until yolks are just set, about another 2 to 3 minutes.

Enjoy! These creations are light and fluffy and quite tasty.
