Ingredients

  • 1-2 large eggs
  • 2-4 tablespoons pesto
  • Red Pepper Flakes season as desired

Instructions

  • Step One: Start by adding pesto to a pan. Heat on medium to medium low heat. Let the pesto get warm. 
  • Step Two: Crack eggs over the pesto. Then season with red pepper flakes to your liking.
  • Step Three: Place lid over top of pan and cook your eggs until they reach their desired doneness. (about 5 minutes)
  • Step Four: Add pesto and egg(s) to a piece of toast and enjoy.

Notes

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.
