This saucy dish makes a great savory breakfast, or pair with a side salad for a lighter dinner option.
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add bell peppers and onion; cook for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in marinara sauce and oregano; cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Form 4 (3-inch) indentations in vegetable mixture using back of a spoon. Break 1 egg into each indentation; sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over eggs. Cover and cook 6 minutes or until eggs are desired degree of doneness.
Step 3
Arrange 1 toast slice on each of 4 plates. Top each slice with 1/2 cup sauce and 1 egg. Sprinkle each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons parsley and 1 teaspoon cheese.

These were good, but I am not sure that I would make it again. We had quite a bit of sauce and peppers/onions left, so I think the proportions of this recipe were a bit off.

Delicious and very easy. I especially liked that there was minimal prep work and only one pan to clean. Found some grainy Pannini bread to put this on. Will definitely make it again.

Absolutely a wonderful, easy meal. We were suprised at how much flavor the meal had. Serve with a side salad, and it's a very filling meal as well.

This dish is fantastic—delicious, easy, and only 1 pan to clean-up. Use a great marinara sauce and a nice crusty loaf of whole wheat bread if you can, the ingredients are simple and very flavorful.

Quite a tasty recipe. I made this with Cibatta bread from a local bakery, and Mazzetta marinara because it was the best option at the store, but over 450 ml of sodium, made me cautious. My boyfriend and I agreed that it was rather delicious, like finishing off a good spaghetti sauce at the end of the meal. It was very simple, quick, and filling.
