Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Place 1/2 cup of peas in a small pot of boiling water. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until peas are tender.
- Drain the peas and set them aside.
- Toast the slice of whole-wheat bread to your desired level of crispiness. You can use a toaster or a toaster oven for this step.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 2 tsp of butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the skillet evenly.
- Crack 1 egg into the skillet and cook until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 2-3 minutes. For a firmer yolk, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Spread 1 oz of goat cheese evenly over the toasted whole-wheat bread.
- Top the goat cheese with the cooked peas.
- Gently place the cooked egg on top of the pea and goat cheese toast.
- Sprinkle 1/2 tsp of dill over the top.
- Add a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately while the toast is still warm.
Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen peas for the best flavor and nutrition. If using frozen peas, make sure to thaw them before cooking.
- For a creamier texture, allow the goat cheese to come to room temperature before spreading it on the toast.
- To prevent the egg from sticking to the pan, make sure to use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron pan and cook the egg on medium heat.
- Feel free to add additional herbs or spices, such as chives or paprika, to suit your taste preferences.
- If you're watching your calorie intake, you can reduce the amount of butter used or replace it with a cooking spray.
