Recipe: Eggs in a Mediterranean Basket

Ingredients:

4 large slices fresh baked organic multi-grain bread
4 large organic eggs
Mediterranean feta cheese
Olive oil
Fresh ground black pepper

Optional: Diced tomatoes, onions, black olives, diced mushrooms

Coat a large iron skillet generously with olive oil and set on medium heat.  Tear a hole in the center of each slice of bread.  Once skillet is heated thoroughly, lay each slice of bread in skillet and crack one egg into the center of each slice.  Top with crumbled feta cheese and pepper (and any of the optional ingredients if desired), cover, and cook until egg whites are done through and yolks are to desired consistency, being careful that the bottom does not begin to burn (if this starts to happen, just reduce the heat, but if you are using an iron skillet this shouldn't be a big problem).  Remove, drizzle with a bit more olive oil if desired, and enjoy!

Serves 2.
