Recipe Notes

  • You can cook the eggs however you want. I like mine on the fluffy side.
  • Enjoy this as is or can be enjoyed with toast or EVEN WITH RICE!!!
  • Instead of using cherry tomatoes, you can use normal sized tomatoes.
  • I used 20-25 basil leaves. You can use more or less. I just want to taste of basil to stand out.
