Poached Egg on Skinny Garlic Toast
Ingredients
- 1 slice of multigrain or whole wheat bread, I used Milton’s multigrain, see shopping tip
- 1 teaspoon reduced-fat butter or Smart Balance Light
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ cup tomato, chopped and drained (I used sliced grape or cherry tomatoes)
- 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup of water
- ½ tablespoon of apple cider or any white vinegar
- 1 egg, I like using Eggland’s Best eggs, see healthy benefits
- Salt and pepper to taste, if desired
Instructions
- Toast bread and spread with butter or Smart Balance Light. Sprinkle all over with garlic powder and Parmesan cheese. Place chopped tomatoes all over top of toast. Set aside.
- In a small pot, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add vinegar. Crack egg into a small custard cup or small bowl and slowly pour it into the pot of boiling water. Set a timer and simmer egg for 3-4 minutes. Cook to desired consistency. If you like it very running cook for 3 minutes.
- While the egg is cooking, place garlic toast under the broiler for about 30-45 seconds for cheese to melt. Remove from oven.
- When egg is ready, carefully remove from water using a rubber spatula. or large spoon. Place the poached egg on top of garlic bread and serve immediately with a fork and knife.
