My favorite meal of any day is most definitely breakfast. Sometimes I hurry off to bed at night and lay there dreaming up all of the things I can prepare in morning from the ingredients in my fridge. I’ll admit, it is so easy to get stuck in a morning routine which usually involves a quick bowl of cereal or frozen waffles, but with a little thought and preparation, you can give your breakfast ritual a complete makeover. Today I prepared a simple Italian eggs breakfast that was so easy and delicious I had to share it with you.
Ingredients Needed :
* English Muffins (or any bread you can toast up)
* Tomato Sauce ( I used my favorite jar brand )
* Fresh Basil
* Eggs
* Salt + Pepper
* Extra Virgin OO
* Red Pepper Flakes ( optional )
Place 2 teaspoons of coconut oil (my preference) in a pan that’s on medium to medium-low heat and crack two eggs in. Once they’re in the pan, DON’T touch them! Let them simmer letting the heat cook them from underneath, no flipping involved. You’ll know when they are perfectly cooked as soon as the whites are no longer runny and the yolk is still a soft golden sun. In a small pan, heat up some of your tomato sauce. While you’re keeping a close eye on your eggs to not overcook, toast up your english muffins. When they are finished toasting, slather a few tablespoons of your sauce onto each half and top with fresh basil leaves. Place your over-easy eggs on top of your saucy toast and drizzle with good quality extra virgin olive oil, salt + pepper and if you like a little kick, crushed red pepper flakes. I hope you enjoy this meal as much as I do, Mangia!
