Ingredients
1/4 cup pesto
2 eggs
Salt and pepper to taste
Pinch of red chili flakes
2 slices crusty bread
2 oz goat cheese
Instructions
- Toast the bread: Toast the slices of crusty bread until golden and crispy using a toaster or in a pan over medium heat for extra crispiness.
- Prepare the eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt, pepper, and red chili flakes.
- Cook the eggs: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat with a small amount of butter or oil. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are at your desired consistency.
- Add pesto: Once the eggs are nearly cooked, stir in the pesto and cook for another minute to let the flavors infuse.
- Assemble the dish: Spread goat cheese on each slice of toasted bread, then top with the pesto eggs.
- Serve: Garnish with extra red chili flakes or fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
For extra flavor, add vegetables like sautéed spinach, tomatoes, or mushrooms.
Try substituting goat cheese with feta, mozzarella, or Parmesan for a different cheesy taste.
For a vegan version, replace the eggs with tofu or chickpea flour.
