This morning I had a little extra time for a nice breakfast. After scanning through the fridge and pantry, I noticed a fresh, homemade loaf of rosemary focaccia. It reminded me of a little dish I had at this breakfast place called Katrina's called "The Tuscan Scramble", a dish so delicious it gives you a taste of the gorgeous Italian countryside. "The Tuscan Scramble" has won over the hearts of many, including my picky little brother. I will never know if there is anything else yummy to order at Katrina's because I can't ever bring myself to bypass a "Tuscan Scramble." So when I saw this rosemary focaccia, it gave me hope of being able to recreate this masterpiece in my own kitchen!
First, I scrambled four eggs in a frying pan. After that, I sliced up my homemade rosemary focaccia into two even pieces, spread a little bit of butter on each, and put them in my panini maker. (If you don't have a panini maker I'm sure a toaster would work) I left them in to toast for about two minutes, peeking on them every so often. Then, when they were toasted to a crisp, I spread the goat cheese over each piece of bread and spooned half of the eggs onto each slice. Next, I sprinkled some Julienne-cut sun-dried tomatoes and some shredded basil over the creation. Finally to top it off, I drizzled a heaping spoonful of my favorite pesto onto each slice. It was so beautiful I could barely bring myself to eat it!! Luckily I managed, and my tastebuds got to take a swift trip to Italy this morning. Almost exactly like the restaurant's "Tuscan Scramble", it was a wonderful way to start my day!
Here is the recipe, hope you like it!
