Description:
Quick, easy, delightfully Italian dish - good for breakfast, brunch or lunch.

Ingredients:
For 2 birds in 2 nests:
1 tbs butter, 2 tbs olive oil, 2 thick slices of crusty Italian bread, 2 cloves chopped garlic, 1 big chopped roasted pepper, 2 eggs, 1/2 c chopped parsley, 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1 cup marinara sauce

Add bread slices to skillet & toast for 1-2 minutes until golden. Flip the toast and add roasted peppers to the holes, pushing them down a little bit.
