Pesto Eggs Recipe (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1-2 tablespoons fresh basil pesto

02 - 2 large eggs

03 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

04 - Red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

# Instructions:

01 - Warm 1-2 tablespoons of basil pesto in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. The natural oils in the pesto will provide enough fat for cooking, so no additional butter or oil is needed.

02 - Gently crack the eggs directly into the warmed pesto. Cook them however you prefer - whether you like them scrambled, over-easy, or sunny-side up with runny yolks.

03 - Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes if you enjoy a little kick. Serve immediately alongside crispy toasted bread for the perfect breakfast experience.

# Notes:

01 - This recipe transforms ordinary breakfast eggs into something extraordinary using the rich, herby flavors of basil pesto.

02 - The pesto acts as both a cooking medium and a flavor enhancer, creating a restaurant-quality dish at home.

03 - Perfect for weekend brunches or when you want to elevate your morning routine with minimal effort.
