Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Scrambled Eggs
- Begin by gathering and prepping all your ingredients for the scrambled eggs.
- In a stir-fry pan, melt 1 teaspoon of Nutralite Garlic & Oregano Spread over medium heat.
- Once melted, add the spring onion greens and green chili. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, or until the onions soften and take on a light golden color.
- Crack the whole eggs (3) into the pan and whisk them gently. Continue cooking until the eggs begin to form curds and scramble together.
- Once scrambled, add 2 tablespoons of Nutralite Cheesy Garlic Mayo to the eggs. Stir to combine, creating a creamy, cheesy scrambled egg mixture.
- Turn off the heat and set the scrambled eggs aside to keep warm.
Step 2: Prepare the Savory French Toast
- In a mixing bowl, crack 3 whole eggs and whisk them together with 1/4 cup milk, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper.
- Dip the whole wheat brown bread slices into the egg mixture, allowing each slice to soak up the mixture thoroughly.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and melt 1 teaspoon of Nutralite Garlic & Oregano Spread in it.
- Once melted, add the soaked bread slices to the pan. Cook each slice for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the French toast is golden brown and the egg mixture has been absorbed fully into the bread.
- Once cooked, remove the French toast from the pan and place them onto a serving platter.
Step 3: Assemble the Dish
- Spoon the cheesy garlic scrambled eggs over the hot savory French toast slices. The creamy eggs should generously cover the toast, creating a deliciously rich and satisfying dish.
Step 4: Serve
- Serve your Savory French Toast with Cheesy Garlic Scrambled Eggs immediately, ideally with a hot cup of coffee or your favorite morning beverage. This dish makes for a wholesome, protein-packed breakfast that will energize you for the day ahead.
Serving Suggestions
- Pair this savory breakfast with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad for extra nutrients.
- You can also drizzle a little extra Nutralite Cheesy Garlic Mayo on top for an added cheesy punch.
- If you prefer your toast a little crispy, you can lightly toast the bread before dipping it into the egg mixture.
