Valentine’s Day Breakfast Sandwich
Ingredients:
- 1 (8 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained
- 1 (6 ounce) jar sundried tomatoes, packed in oil
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 large bagel of choice, cut in half (round)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- Handful fresh baby spinach
- 1 egg, poached or fried (slightly runny)
- 2 slices of prosciutto
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Add artichokes, sundried tomatoes, parmesan, pine nuts and olive oil in a food processor and pulse until well combined and almost smooth. Set aside.
Place each bagel round on a baking sheet and top with cheese. Place in the oven for 6 to 8 minutes or until the cheese melts and begins to brown. Remove from heat.
On one bagel round, layer spinach, egg, and prosciutto. On the other side, slather as much of the pesto as desired before placing on top of the prosciutto.
Serve immediately.
