Ingredients and Directions
Directions
Cut a shallow small “X” on the bottom of tomatoes. Blanch tomatoes for 30 seconds; plunge in ice bath. Peel when cool, then seed and dice.
Whisk together oil and lime juice. Pour over tomatoes. Sprinkle on sea salt and pepper to taste. Stir in cilantro. Cover and reserve.
Lightly brush bread with oil. Grill until well toasted on both sides. Keep warm.
Melt butter in skillet. Blend eggs, water and salt/pepper (to taste). Cook and scramble eggs until firm throughout, with no visible liquid egg remaining.
For each serving, spread 2 oz. (about 2 tbsp.) cheese onto grilled bread. Top with approximately 1/3 cup scrambled egg and 2 tbsp. salsa. Serve immediately.
Note: Do not let uncooked egg mixture remain at room temperature for longer than one hour (including preparation and service time).
*If using frozen or liquid whole egg product.

To ensure food safety, eggs should be cooked until both the yolk and the white are firm. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness, especially for those with certain medical conditions. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served, use either pasteurized shell eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella, or use pasteurized egg products.
