To buy
- 4 slices bread
From your shelf
- 1 cup [110 g] reduced fat crumbled feta cheese (Stella)
Staples
- 6 eggs
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- Crack 6 eggs into a bowl, add 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and whisk well. Mince 2 cloves garlic.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the minced garlic, stirring until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the eggs and stir gently with a spatula, scraping the bottom and sides often. While the eggs cook, spread 2 tablespoons butter on 4 slices of bread.
- When the eggs are barely set but still slightly wet on top, after about 3 minutes, add 1 cup crumbled feta and fold gently two or three times until just combined. Remove from heat when the eggs look barely set.
- Toast the buttered bread in a separate skillet or under the broiler until the edges are golden, about 2 minutes, while finishing the eggs.
Note Swap cottage cheese for feta and add a squeeze of lemon. Leftovers keep two days cold and reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water. Serve with a green salad dressed simply with oil and vinegar.
