Wonderfull idea - nests can be kept in the fridge for about 3-4 days and warmed in the microwave. You can use any vegetable of choice - any beans, peas or mushrooms - for the non-vegetarian version you could also add ham or bacon to the nests. Instead of the wholewheat pasta you can use rice noodles or any other spaghetti of choice.

Steps

1 hour

1

Cook spaghetti as described on the package
2

Cut the veggies into small dice (zucchino/bell pepper) - put some oil into a pan - cook the veggies for about 3 minutes - remove from pan and let cool
3

Whisk the eggs and milk together - season with salt & pepper
4

Grease the 12 wholes of a muffin pan with a bit olive oil - pre-heat oven (200C or 400F)
5

Spread egg-milk over the spaghetti nests - put some cheese on every nest
6

Combine the cooked spaghetti with half of the vegetables and put them into the muffin pan (it's easier if you rollup the spaghetti as if you'd eat them - then put the spaghetti role into the muffin whole and then add the veggies if they fell off)
7

Put your nests into the oven for 25-30 minutes (until golden brown)
8

While nests are in the oven - cook some lovely sauce
9

Chop onion into small dice - press garlic through a press
10

Add olive oil into a pot - cook onion and garlic until glazed
11

Add wine and seasoning (chili/salt/pepper/oregano/herbs of choice) - let bowl down (so that the alcohol disappears)
12

Add tomato dice and sweetener of choice - cook on low heat for about 5 minutes
13

When the nests are golden brown - they're finished - you can have them as a lovely main meal just with the tomato sauce or as side dish to chicken or a nice fish
