Ingredients
3 tbsp light mayonnaise
2 tbsp (30 ml) fresh trim milk
1 tbsp (15 ml) grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp (5 ml) lemon juice
0.5 tsp grated lemon rind
4 large eggs
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
4 slices fresh bread – Multigrain, Sourdough or Italian
Directions
- Place mayonnaise in small microwave-safe bowl; whisk in milk. Microwave on Medium (50% power) just until hot, about 45 seconds, stirring after 30 seconds. Whisk in Parmesan cheese, lemon juice and rind until smooth. Set sauce aside.
- Spray large non-stick frypan or skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. Crack eggs into pan or onto skillet. Break yolks with edge of spatula. Cook eggs to preferred hardness.
- Place tomato slices on 2 slices of bread. Top with fried egg. Spoon about 1 tbsp warm sauce over each egg. Cover with second slice of bread. Serve.
Notes
- The Parmesan cheese sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated. When ready to serve, warm briefly in microwave on Medium-High (75% power).
- Instead of sliced bread, you can use English muffins or burger buns.
