Truffle Pesto Poached Egg Toast

Welcome to our weekly Foodie Friday link up! I’m linking up with Annmarie from the Fit Foodie Mama + Esther from Chocolate Runner Girl to create awesome healthy recipes each week! This week’s theme is Pinterest Curiosities!

I feel like I haven’t posted a new recipe in ages (probably because I haven’t), but hopefully that will change soon-ish? It’s crunch time for studying and trying to juggle that between work and replacing my lost driver’s license/passport (…) and having some semblance of a life (kindasorta) has been rough. I feel like I’m constantly leading some sort of a double life! :P

You’ll have to forgive how simple this is, but yay for quick and easy snacks/breakfasts?! There’s all kinds of toast out there these days–avocado toast, sweet potato toast…I figured I’d go with it and make something with things I already had lying around in my apartment. Hooray for 5 ingredients + under recipes!

When I was moving out of Please Save A Cat last year (it’s hard to believe it was only a little over a year ago!?), Linda gave me a Nordic Ware 2-Cavity Egg Poacher (not an affiliate link) that I recently re-discovered in my cabinets, so I figured I’d give it a try! Tis a game-changer. I know poaching eggs isn’t all that difficult, but this makes it even easier!

I also had some pesto left that I got from The French Farm during #CookoutWeek, so I figured I’d put that to good use as well!

Print Recipe

Truffle Pesto Poached Egg Toast

Ingredients

• 1 slice whole wheat bread
• 1 tbsp La Favorita Pesto Genovese with Truffles
• 2 eggs poached
• sprinkle of desired spices*

Instructions

• Toast the bread in a toaster and spread pesto in an even layer on one side.

Nordic Ware Egg Poacher method

• If you have a Nordic Ware Egg Poacher, crack the eggs in, stab the yolks with a fork and add 1 tsp of water to each. Then close the lid and microwave for 45-60 seconds!

"Legit" Egg Poaching Method

• Heat up a pan with steadily simmering water and crack an egg into the pan. Let cook for ~3 minutes and remove with a spoon.
• Top the toast with the poached eggs and sprinkle with spices.
• Serve hot!

Notes

*I used a "bruschetta mix" that consists of salt, black pepper, garlic powder + chili pepper!

End-of-Week-ish Recap!

• I’ve been bitten by the travel bug, but can’t go anywhere anytime soon (sigh)…so I made a travel bucket list! Let me know what places I should add onto there!
• So many parts of life involve negotiating–whether or not you realize that it’s even happening. Check out my review of The Only Negotiating Guide You’ll Ever Need!
