Ingredients
Instructions
-
Brush olive oil over the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet. Heat on medium.
-
Evenly sprinkle 2 tablespoons of Parmesan over the base. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the cheese starts to melt.
-
Crack the eggs on top, cover, and cook for 2–3 minutes until the whites are starting to set.
-
Uncover, turn the heat to medium-high, and cook for another 1–2 minutes until the edges are crisp. (Careful not to over-brown the cheese—crispy is good, burnt is not!)
-
Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the last tablespoon of Parmesan before serving.
Notes
- Add avocado slices on the side for extra healthy fats.
- Pair with a small green salad or sautéed spinach for more fiber.
- Want a little crunch? Try one slice of whole-grain toast to round out the meal.
- Add a little hot sauce or salsa for good kick.
