This always shocks people, but I've never been a fan of a fried breakfast. It's such an English meal, a classic fry-up, but I've never enjoyed them. It's always been too greasy and too salty for me, and I've never liked to start my day with such a breakfast. (It's also rare that a restaurant or server offer vegetarian meat-style choices!!) So, over the years I've revamped the 'English Breakfast' into something that suits me and my family, and it's our go-to choice when we need something a little more filling, but just as comforting. It's a bit more special too, which is so pleasing.
As we don't have this breakfast often, it's a bit of a treat for us and because of this, I've chosen a decadent and extra-special bread. It might sound too much, or just completely over the top, but trust me when I say that it really does make the dish. The pesto works so well with the roasted cherry tomatoes and the balsamic-coated kale, whilst it doesn't contrast with the eggs at all. It's SO GOOD. I also strongly advise you to get this particular brand, because it's also suitable for vegans which is an added bonus. (If this wasn't enough, you're also supporting a family brand who have a "taste obsession" and have strong Italian roots - what's not to love?)
Slightly Mediterranean, but with a smoky touch, this is a vegetarian breakfast of champions. It's got all the best things in it - Smoky Eggs, Kale and Basil Halloumi, on Focaccia toast. You coming?
