Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 4 oz sliced mushrooms and 1 medium carrot cut into thin strips. Cook, stirring, until tender and lightly browned, about 6-8 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a gentle simmer. Crack 2 eggs into the water and poach for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are still soft.

  3. Step 3

    Toast 2 slices of bread until golden. Place the toast on plates and top with the mushroom-carrot mixture.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon and place them on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle with 0.5 tsp black pepper and serve immediately.
