How to Make Mediterranean Eggs

  1. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the chopped tomatoes and sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened.
  2. While the vegetables are cooking, whisk together the eggs, fresh basil, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the pan with the tomatoes and mushrooms. Gently scramble the eggs, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but still slightly moist (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. While the eggs cook, toast or grill the bread slices to your desired level of crispness.
  5. In a separate small pan, pan-fry the prosciutto slices over medium heat until they become crispy. This should take approximately 2-3 minutes.
  6. To serve, place a slice of toasted bread on each plate. Top with a generous portion of the scrambled eggs, followed by a slice of crispy prosciutto.
  7. Garnish each serving with a fresh sprig of basil and enjoy!
