Brighten your morning with Breakfast Bruschetta—crispy toasted bread topped with scrambled or poached eggs, fresh tomatoes, herbs, avocado, or cheese. Light, flavorful, and perfect for a refreshing, Mediterranean-inspired start to the day!

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons light whipped butter or light buttery spread
  • 1 (2-inch-wide) french baguette (about 4 ounces)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute
  • 1 plum tomato, diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
  • salt and black pepper, optional

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Put butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave until melted, about 15 seconds. Set aside.
  3. Using a sharp serrated knife, carefully cut baguette into 16 half-inch-thick slices. (Discard the ends or reserve for another use.) Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray and evenly place the bread on the sheet.
  4. Using a pastry brush, evenly brush each slice of bread with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder.
  5. Bake in the oven until warm and crispy, about 8 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. Add egg substitute and scramble until it's mostly cooked, about 3 minutes.
  7. Add tomato and basil to the skillet and continue to scramble until fully cooked, about 1 minute.
  8. Evenly distribute scrambled egg mixture among the baked bread slices. If you like, season with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
