GRAYCE'S TOMATO AND EGG BREAKFAST

L A K E R 'S !  Need I say more?  Can I just tell you how many times my heart stopped last night!  They never make it easy.  I don't know about them but I am exhausted!  I need a vacation.  Speaking of which, I am going to have a mini vacation this weekend with my daughter and her family.

Today I have a great recipe for a nice Sunday brunch just in time for the weekend.  It is something I came up with one hot weekend last summer.  I think you will like it and I hope you try it this weekend for your family.

GRAYCES TOMATO AND EGG BREAKFAST

Makes 4 servings (but you can make as many as you like)

2 very large tomatoes
4 eggs
4 sandwich size Thomas's English Muffins
Fresh basil
Garlic
Bread crumbs
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Toast the muffins, drizzle with a little olive oil and set aside.  Cut 4 thick slices from the tomatoes.  In a blender or Cuisinart Blend a handful of basil.  Add 1 cup of Italian bread crumbs, 2 garlic cloves and blend.  Add a little salt and pepper.  Add just enough olive oil to make a loose, dry mixture.  Put into a pie plate and put each tomato slice in one at a time, patting them to coat with the mixture.  Set aside.  Put some olive oil into a skillet and saute the tomatoes just until lightly browned.  Remove and set aside.  Poach 4 eggs.  To assemble, put the tomato on one half of the muffin, put the poached egg on top, drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with some chopped basil.  Serve with the other half of muffin.  Yummy!

Thanks for stopping in today, have a great weekend
Ciao
