Sage Toad in the Hole with Tomato and Avocado
This is a pretty classic breakfast, but I added a bit of a twist to it to make it “extra awesome”. You’d be surprised how much flavor this adds, and it would probably work with most fresh herbs. Enjoy.
Ingredients (serves 2):
- 2 thick slices of bread
- 2 eggs
- 8 sage leaves
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- Salt, pepper, and butter
Made an egg-sized hole in the middle of both pieces of bread. Heat up a pan to medium, melt about half the butter, layer 4 sage leaves (2 under where each piece of bread will go), and put the bread on top. Crack an egg in the middle of each, put on the rest of the sage and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, flip (adding the rest of the butter), and cook for another 3-4 minutes to finish. Serve with tomato and avocado on the side.
