Ingredients

Bread and Butter

  • 2 slices sourdough bread
  • 1 tablespoon butter (divided)

Eggs and Cheese

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Garlic & Herb Boursin cheese

Vegetables and Garnish

  • ½ cup arugula
  • ¼ cup cherry tomatoes (quartered)
  • Drizzle of balsamic glaze
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the skillet: Heat a skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add ½ tablespoon of butter and spread it around the skillet until it melts, ensuring an even coating for toasting the bread.
  2. Toast the sourdough bread: Place the slices of sourdough bread in the skillet. Let each side brown and become toasty; first cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip and toast the other side for 1-2 minutes. Remove the toasted bread from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the eggs: Reduce the skillet heat to low and add the remaining ½ tablespoon of butter. Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and cook them to your preferred doneness, whether that’s sunny side up, over easy, or fully cooked.
  4. Assemble the toast: Spread 1 tablespoon of Garlic & Herb Boursin cheese on the top side of each toasted sourdough slice. Place the cooked eggs on top of the cheese layer. Then add fresh arugula and quartered cherry tomatoes on top of the eggs. Finish by drizzling a bit of balsamic glaze over the assembled toast. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can lightly toast the cherry tomatoes in the skillet before assembling the toast.
  • Use fresh sourdough bread for best texture and flavor.
  • Boursin cheese adds a creamy, herby punch but can be substituted with another soft herbed cheese if unavailable.
  • Adjust egg cooking time according to your preferred style.
  • Balsamic glaze can be omitted or replaced with honey for a different flavor profile.
