If you aren’t yet familiar with the one pan egg sandwich sometimes called egg toast, you are missing out! We have our family favorite version we like to call omelet toast. My son and husband in particular LOVE this breakfast egg sandwich! Let me walk you through how I make it! It’s a super tasty and easy way to get your day off to a good start… along with a big ol’ steaming cup of Costa Rican coffee ☕!
What do I need to make omelet toast?
I use homemade Italian bread (here is my favorite recipe), but feel free to substitute store-bought Italian bread or your favorite loaf bread, if that is what you have! I like to use Italian bread because it is the perfect size for my family’s appetite and for my skillet! The texture of the bread works really well for this egg sandwich as well!
You will also need your basic egg seasoning spices (in our case salt, pepper, and ground turmeric), as well as sliced tomatoes, melty cheese, and a kicked up sauce! Todd and I prefer a homemade hot pepper jelly, but Toby loves his with Sriracha sauce! You can substitute your favorite hot sauce!! Or you could use your favorite jam or jelly!
With Todd being a big chile head ??, I sneak in crushed chocolate habañeros into his version also ?! Feel free to adjust to your family’s taste buds and preferences!!!
