Pesto Fried Eggs on Toast

 

2 T. basil pesto

2 eggs

2 slices bread French or Italian, toasted

2 T. cream cheese counter, softened

1 half avocado, mashed

salt and pepper

honey drizzle

 

Add basil pesto to a small non-stick skillet and heat pan over medium-low heat. Basil pesto includes oil and should heat up well. Crack eggs into a bowl. Remove any tiny shells. Now slowly add eggs into hot skillet and season generously with salt and black pepper. Cook eggs to your liking. Generally, for a medium-hard egg, cook 2-3 minutes on one side and flip for 30 seconds. Spread 1 T. of softened cream cheese onto each piece of sliced and toasted bread. Top each piece of bread with half of the mashed avocado. Drizzle avocado with a bit of sweet honey. Place cooked pesto egg on top of the toast and serve immediately while hot. Add on a dash of red pepper flakes. While a side of bacon is always great, adding a few small slices of bacon right on top of the avocado (under the pesto egg) is delicious too! Skip the cream cheese for Greek Yogurt, feta cheese, Ricotta cheese, or goat cheese spread.  Instead of serving on bread, try cooked hashbrowns, toasted bagels, English muffins.
