Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 12 slices of thick
  • cut bacon
  • 2 large ripe tomatoes
  • 1 pound white button mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
  • 6 slices of freshly baked bread
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the tomatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 20 25 minutes, or until the skin begins to wrinkle. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  3. In a non stick skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat for 6 8 minutes on each side, or until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

  6. In a small saucepan, bring water to a simmer. Crack each egg into a separate bowl and carefully slide them one by one into the simmering water. Cook for 3 4 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a plate.
  7. Arrange the roasted tomatoes, bacon, sautéed mushrooms, toast, and poached eggs on a large serving platter in an inviting layout. Garnish with fresh parsley.
