Steps
1
In a cold pan, add the pesto and use a spoon to spread out the pesto into an even circle that’s going to be larger than your egg. Then turn on the stove to low heat.
2
Crack the egg over the pesto and spoon a little bit more pesto on top of the whites.
3
Cover with a lid and cook for about 1 ½ minutes or until the whites are opaque. Here's what it looks like when the pesto eggs are done.
4
Add the optional avocado and tomato slices onto your toasted sourdough if you want.
5
Place the pesto egg on top. Season with salt and pepper to taste with optional red pepper flakes and serve immediately.
