- ½ tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp Co-op olive oil
- 4 rashers Co-op Irresistible British dry cured bacon, thickly sliced
- 4 Co-op crusty white rolls
- 50g British baby spinach
- 40g Co-op Irresistible Somerset vintage Cheddar, coarsely grated
- 4 Co-op British eggs

Method
- Preheat the oven to 220℃/fan 200℃/Gas 7
- Place the tomatoes, cut-side up, on a baking tray and sprinkle with the oregano and oil
- Bake for 10 mins on the top shelf
- Heat a nonstick frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry the bacon for 5 mins, until golden brown, tossing often
- Cut an 8cm diameter circle in the top of each roll and pull out the bread inside to create a bowl

- Line a baking tray with foil and set the bread bowls on top, with the lids alongside
