A quick and flavorful dish featuring creamy scrambled eggs swirled with fragrant pesto, served over crispy toasted bread for a simple yet elevated meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp pesto
  • 2 slices bread
  • 1 tbsp butter or olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp.
  2. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and black pepper.
  3. Heat butter or olive oil in a non-stick pan over low heat.
  4. Pour in the eggs and gently stir continuously until soft and creamy.
  5. When the eggs are almost set, swirl in the pesto, leaving streaks visible.
  6. Remove from heat just before fully cooked to keep them tender.
  7. Spoon the scrambled eggs onto the toasted bread.
  8. Top with grated parmesan cheese if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Cook eggs on low heat for the creamiest texture.
  • Do not overcook; eggs continue to cook off heat.
  • Use good-quality pesto for the best flavor.
  • Freshly toasted bread improves texture and taste.
