Ingredients
Scale
- 3 eggs
- ½ small onion, finely chopped
- Fresh parsley, chopped, to taste
- Salt, to taste
- Paprika, to taste
- Tomato sauce, as needed
- 4 slices of cheese
- 4–6 fresh tomato slices
- Butter, for spreading
- 4 slices of bread
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with chopped onion, parsley, salt, and paprika until well combined.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook the egg mixture, stirring occasionally, until scrambled and set. Remove from heat.
- Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread. On the unbuttered side, spread tomato sauce, then layer scrambled eggs, fresh tomato slices, and cheese.
- Heat a pan or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwich butter-side down and cook for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook the other side until the cheese melts.
- Remove from heat, slice in half, and serve warm.
Notes
- Use whole-grain bread for a healthier version.
- Add spinach, avocado, or ham for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to a day.
- Reheat in a pan over low heat to maintain crispiness.
