- 1-2 large eggs

Tips For Success
- Ensure you are using medium low to medium heat. Any higher you can burn the pesto and the egg.
- Allow the pesto to cook for 1-2 minutes in the pan, then add in the egg.
- I like to make a circle with the pesto and then drop the egg on top. That way the egg and pesto kind of stick as it cooks.
- Using a nonstick pan will allow for an easy flip and removal of the egg.
