Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Egg Toast

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Pesto eggs on toast are hands down one of my favourite go-to breakfasts. If you haven’t made pesto eggs yet I don’t know what you are waiting for. They have been circling the Internet for a while and I honestly think my version of them with ricotta is what makes them stand out. You can enjoy this easy 5 minute meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner if you are like me and enjoy eggs any time of day. This is seriously what breakfast dreams are made of. I love using sprouted or Ezekiel bread but you can use any.

Cook Time 5 mins

Servings

Ingredients

3 tablespoons sun-dried tomato pesto – or any
2 medium or large eggs
salt and dry oregano to taste
any bread I use sprouted or Ezekiel
ricotta is optional cream cheese is lovely
fresh parsley or basil any herbs

Instructions

Add your pesto to a cold pan on medium-high heat. Let your pesto heat up a touch and gently crack two eggs. Salt and dry oregano on top and let it cook for 1-2 minutes until the egg-white starts to form.
Put a lid on and cook covered for the remainder of the time so that the yolk cooks as well (you can reduce the heat to medium-low) after you put the lid on.
How cooked or runny you want the yolk will be up to you so you can keep opening the lid to check on it.
Toast your favourite bread, add some fresh ricotta on top and your egg. Garnish with any fresh and finely chopped herbs and enjoy.

Notes

You can use any pesto you love, and the Ricotta is optional it is just as good without it. Feel free to use any dairy-free alternative or make your own homemade pesto at home which I do quite often. Hot sauce or chili flakes are optional if you like some heat. Feel free to make these any way you love.

Theres a secret to making the most refreshing summertime orzo pasta salad! My secret ingredient is freshly squeezed orange juice. The orange juice gives this salad the lightest most refreshing taste with a hint of sweetness. Whenever I serve this salad on the table I get bombarded with questions on how to make it. Now that you know my secret, please give it a try this summer when you’re hosting or bring it along if you’re being hosted. I promise, this salad will be first to disappear from the table. This recipe is the perfect side for meal-prep and you can make it ahead of time.

¼ cup of olive oil, to taste
½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice, to taste

My creamy broccoli ricotta pasta will be your new

My creamy broccoli ricotta pasta will be your new favorite dish. The sauce is not only delicious, it’s nutritious made with hidden veggies which you’ll never know are in here. This sauce is the perfect way to sneak in veggies if you have picky eaters. To make this a kid-friendly pasta dish you can also call it “green monster” pasta and have fun with it by using kid-friendly pasta shapes as well. The ricotta in this dish makes the sauce super creamy and light but feel free to use cottage cheese if you’re looking to boost up the protein. Broccoli, spinach, onions and garlic are all a nutritional powerhouse full of vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants so don’t be afraid to load up on the sauce! If you like this recipe, please let me know below and feel free to make it your own.

4 cups broccoli, cut into florets

This semolina cake is also known as “Gris Halva” in Bulgaria. Semolina Halva is one of the most delicious desserts in the Balkans. It’s basically semolina that is slowly toasted in oil until golden, soaked in hot syrup and pressed into any pan/mold you like.This is the dessert that almost every country from the Balkans, to the Mediterranean to India (and every country in between) claim as their own. I always say that food unites us all so I am grateful no matter where this delicious dessert first originated from. Our sweet semolina cake is not only dairy-free, it’s egg-free as well. We call this recipe the 1:2:3:4 recipe as traditionally it requires 1 part oil, 2 parts semolina, 3 parts sugar, 4 parts water. The traditional method is always too oily or sweet for us so we like to reduce the sugar and oil by half.

4 cups water
1.5 cups sugar
slice of lemon (optional)
½ cup mild tasting oil, I used avocado oil
2 cups semolina #2 (400 grams) coarse Semolina
