Eggs in a Basket

This isn't much of a recipe but it's a fun take on fried eggs and toast! Makes a nice and simple breakfast if you just want something light.



This simple little dish consists of...
- an egg
- sliced bread
- butter/margerine 

How to make it:
1. Using a small knife, carve a large hole out of the center of your bread (too small of a hole will result in messy egg overflow) and lightly butter (or margerine) both sides of the bread.
2. In a frying pan on low-medium heat, lightly toast one side of the bread.
3. Flip your bread so the toasted side is facing up. Carefully crack an egg into the hole in the bread and let fry. If you like your eggs sunny-side up then stop here, or if you like your eggs done over-easy (like I do), continue on to step 4.
4. Gently flip the toast and let sit for just a second or two (any longer and your yolk will over-cook) before flipping back over onto your plate. 

Suggestions to make this even healthier: Try using whole wheat or multi-grain bread, or separate your egg and use only the egg whites!
