Katy Hees of Santa Fe, New Mexico, writes: Eating local, fresh, organic food is important to me. It doesn't get much more local than the eggs I use, which come from our own chickens. I came up with my fried eggs on toast recipe as a great way to dress them up for dinner. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature, divided |
4 large eggs |
4 slices hot pepper monterey jack cheese |
4 1/2-inch-thick slices country bread, toasted |
1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, sliced |
chopped fresh cilantro |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large broilerproof skillet over medium heat. Crack eggs into skillet; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until egg whites are just set on bottom, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; top each egg with 1 cheese slice. Broil until cheese just melts, about 1 minute.
2. Spread remaining 2 tablespoons butter on toast; top with eggs, then avocado slices. Sprinkle with cilantro.
