Jammy Eggs on Toast Muffins

1. Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
2. With a rolling pin, roll over each slice of bread to flatten it out and make it pliable. Brush or spray each muffin tin with butter or oil.
3. Gently place and press a slice of flattened bread into each muffin bin. Crack an egg into each crust, sprinkle with some salt and pepper, and top with shredded cheese and sliced green onions.
4. Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the eggs are done to your preference. Cooking longer will produce more of a hard-​boiled egg texture.
5. Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool for a few minutes. Serve with avocado slices, fresh sprouts, and dollops of sour cream or salsa.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this reel rated for salt water
Answer:	Depends what you're fishing with. Check out the kastking royal legend rod.
Question:	What is the gear ratio
Answer:	You probably need to go with braid if your loading 20# test line. Since it holds 165 yards of 12# mono my guess is you could only load about half that with 20# mono. Spider wire has a killer braid called invisi-braid that is supposed to be almost invisible. This reel will accept braid line as well as mono.
Question:	Where is this reel made
Answer:	Hello Lorin, are you sure it is the gears that are squeaking? One drop of oil goes a long way if you can identify the exact location of the squeaking. Gears normally are lubricated with grease while bearings and other moving parts are lubricated with oil.
Question:	Does it come in the left hand model
Answer:	I have two these reels spooled with 150 yds 30 lb. Power pro slick braided line, both are mounted on lite pro ugly sticks rated for 8-20 line and medium action. This combination is hard to beat at any price. I have 6 feet of 20 lb. Fluorocarbon as the tippet. Use uni-knots to secure tippet to braided line.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this for saltwater fishing
Answer:	It's a good reel but not designed for salwater. I use this reel and many more that aren't designed for salt water all the time. A reel that is designed for salt water (stainless steel bearings ect.) will run you upwards of $300. I use normal design reels and as long as you clean, then dry then oil them, they will last for years. I put them in a 5 gallon bucket of water with a little dish washing liquid and shake them around then let them soak overnight. Dry them the next day and oil.
Question:	Line capacity of quantum centex reel
Answer:	125 of 12 pound
Question:	What is line capacity 30# test
Answer:	This reel is recommended for 12 lb mono.
Question:	What Test line can you put on this
Answer:	10-12-14 I would think. I used 12 pound in salt water.

User questions & answers

Question:	In the description, the one size says that it’s right handed. which is it? when you choose the fgct100 option it says left handed. is it left
Answer:	Well, you can, but it's a little light to catch anything of size you might hook. If you are just fishing for mangrove snapper or sheepshead you will be ok, but, not for much anything larger. You'd probably be better off with a larger spinning reel. If you do decide to get this for salt water, like any other reel after fishing in salt water, wash it down with fresh water before putting it away.
Question:	Are these reels 2017 stock because the weight for these is 10.32 ozs oother ones i have seen same models are 7.32ozs
Answer:	I would not us this on big fish..... the line would be too light ,,, 3 lb spotted bass can bend the pickup
Question:	Is it right handed
Answer:	probably China or Thailand. Like everything else. Even if assembled in the USA the parts would be Chinese. Great spin cast closed reel, the best by miles.
Question:	What does one size mean for size
Answer:	Yes, it is reversible.
