Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1 slice whole grain bread
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 large eggs, 1 medium tomato (diced), 1 slice of whole grain bread, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Begin by heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and allow it to warm for about 1 minute, ensuring it coats the bottom of the skillet evenly.
- While the oil is heating, prepare the tomato. Dice the medium tomato into small cubes and set aside.
- Once the oil is hot, add the diced tomato to the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices.
- While the tomatoes are cooking, crack the 2 large eggs into a bowl and whisk them gently until the yolks and whites are combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- After the tomatoes have cooked down, push them to one side of the skillet. Pour the whisked eggs into the empty side of the skillet. Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes, then gently stir to scramble them.
- Continue to cook the eggs for another 2-3 minutes, or until they are just set but still creamy. Mix the tomatoes and eggs together in the skillet.
- While the eggs and tomatoes are finishing, toast the slice of whole grain bread in a toaster or on a separate skillet until golden brown.
- Once the toast is ready, place it on a plate. Spoon the eggs and tomato mixture generously over the toast.
- Finish with an additional sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Eggs Tomato and Toast!
Tips
- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor and texture. Roma or vine-ripened tomatoes work exceptionally well.
- Keep your skillet on medium heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking of both eggs and tomatoes.
- For extra creaminess, remove eggs from heat when they're still slightly wet - they'll continue cooking from residual heat.
- Experiment with different bread types like sourdough or ciabatta for varied textures and flavors.
- Add a sprinkle of fresh herbs like basil or chives for an elevated taste profile.
- For a protein boost, consider adding a small amount of crumbled feta or grated parmesan cheese on top.
- Always have your ingredients prepped and ready before starting to cook for a smooth, stress-free cooking experience.
