One of the fondest memories I have of my grandma was when she used to visit with us and make us breakfast in the mornings. Her specialty was boiled eggs and toast soldiers. Just thinking about it makes me smile. I am sure most people share similar memories.
I felt so special getting this “fancy” breakfast.
Toast and Eggs
I have a take on this breakfast that is great for kids and adults. It is super easy to make. If you include boiling the water the entire recipe takes 9 minutes to make. Perfect for before school or on the weekend.
Grown up Eggs and Soldiers
- 1 egg
- 1 slice of your favorite bread ( I used ciabatta)
- Butter
- Salt and pepper
Take a pot of water and boil it. Add the egg to the water for 6 minutes. Toast your favorite bread and butter it. Dice it up into cubes and put into a bowl. Remove egg, run it quickly under cold water and peel. Place the peeled egg on the toast cubes and slice it open. Season with salt and pepper and enjoy!
Just like grandma used to make only more grown up.
Boil the egg for 6 minutes
Toast and butter your bread. Dice is put it in a bowl.
Run the 6 minute egg under cold water for 30 seconds
Place peeled egg onto of toast cubes and season with S & P.
Slice and eat!
I am a girl who loves food. I grew up with a Mom who was an excellent cook. She wrote a cookbook when I was a child, and as they say, the rest is history. Started a catering business in 2005 and haven’t looked back. I am a mom to 2 beautiful girls and I want them to love food as much as I do. In the meantime, I love life and love my job @ http://www.monicaskitchen.com
