Ingredients You’ll Need
Grab these fresh ingredients to get started. High-quality olive oil and fresh eggs make a huge difference here.
- 2 ciabatta rolls, sliced lengthwise
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup fresh baby spinach, packed
- 0.25 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and chopped
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon basil pesto
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
Step-by-Step
- Toast the sliced ciabatta rolls until golden brown and set aside.
- Spread the basil pesto evenly across the bottom halves of the toasted rolls.
- In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper until well combined.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach to the skillet, sautéing for 1 to 2 minutes until the spinach is fully wilted.
- Pour the whisked eggs over the vegetables in the skillet and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are soft-scrambled.
- Fold the crumbled feta cheese into the egg mixture just before the eggs are fully set.
- Divide the egg and vegetable mixture equally onto the bottom halves of the ciabatta rolls.
- Place the top halves of the rolls over the filling and serve immediately.
Best Ways to Enjoy It
Serve this sandwich warm while the feta is still creamy. It pairs perfectly with a fresh fruit salad or a crisp iced coffee. This is the ultimate way to treat yourself on a lazy Sunday morning.
How to Store Leftovers
These are best eaten fresh for the crunchiest ciabatta experience. If you have leftovers, store the egg mixture separately in the fridge. Reheat the eggs gently and toast fresh rolls when you are ready to eat. Use within two days for the best quality.
Pro Tips
- Use a non-stick skillet to ensure the eggs stay fluffy.
- Do not overcook the eggs; keep them soft and creamy.
- Drain the sun-dried tomatoes well to avoid a greasy sandwich.
- Press the sandwich down slightly to help the flavors meld.
- Toast the bread well so it stands up to the pesto.
- Whisk your eggs vigorously for maximum fluffiness.
Ways to Switch It Up
- Add sliced avocado for extra creaminess and healthy fats.
- Swap ciabatta for a whole grain wrap for meal prep.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
- Use goat cheese instead of feta for a tangier flavor.
FAQs
Can I make this ahead of time?
You can prep the veggies and whisk the eggs the night before. Assemble and cook fresh for the best texture.
What if I don’t have ciabatta?
Any crusty bread like sourdough or a toasted bagel works great too.
