Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices sourdough bread (1 inch thick)
  • 4 oz crispy mortadella
  • 4 large eggs
  • 4 tbsp pesto sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients by slicing the sourdough bread and setting aside the mortadella.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add mortadella slices and cook until golden brown and crispy (about 2-3 minutes per side). Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together eggs and pesto until well combined.
  4. Lower heat slightly and add remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Pour in the egg mixture and scramble gently for about 3 minutes or until just set but still creamy.

  6. Slice in half and serve immediately while warm.
