Easy Egg and Cheese Toast


  • Author: Mark Bennett
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Description

A quick and satisfying breakfast combining fluffy scrambled eggs and gooey cheese on toasted bread.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 slices of bread (whole grain, sourdough, or your choice)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: fresh herbs (like chives or parsley) for garnish
  • Optional: sliced tomatoes or avocado for topping

Instructions

  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, whisk until light and frothy, adding a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Heat your butter or olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Let it melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
  3. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Gently stir with a spatula as they start to set. Aim for soft, delicate curds.
  4. Add in the shredded cheese once the eggs are nearly cooked through and stir gently.
  5. Toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.
  6. Serve the cheesy egg mixture generously on the toast. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs or toppings like sliced tomatoes or avocado.

Notes

Customize with different cheeses or low-carb alternatives for a healthier option.
