Eggs on Green Toast
Eggs on Green Toast
A simple pesto does wonders for this traditional brekkie.
Servings: 1 bariatric serve
Calories: 311kcal
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 small slice of bread preferably sourdough or multigrain
- Fresh pesto to serve
- A small handful of baby spinach to serve
Instructions
- Bring a small pot of water to the boil.
- When it’s boiling rapidly, dip a spoon into the water. Use this spoon to lower your egg into the water (heating the spoon up first stops them from cracking).
- Set a 6-minute timer, with the water boiling rapidly.
- Get ready for work and throw the bread in the toaster.
- When your 6 minutes is up, put your pot under the tap and run cold water into it until it’s overflowing. Remove the eggs and peel them.
- Spread your toast with pesto and top with the egg and baby spinach to serve.
Notes
- This one is a great base. Make it your own by adding a little cheese (feta goes really well) or a slice of ham.
- If you struggle with bread, or you are worried, toast it extra toasty so it’s crunchier! You can also use something like Ryvitas if you prefer or go without the bread and make it more of a green salad with boiled egg and a dollop of pesto.
- If you're feeding others, 2 bariatric serves are equal to one regular, non-sleeved serve. Use the slider above to adjust the serving sizes you need.
