TikTok’s viral pesto eggs, 2 ways
"This TikTok trend pesto egg uses pesto as a frying oil, which adds flavor to the egg in a very easy and quick way. With green pesto, the creaminess from ricotta cheese and sweetness from honey really balance it out. We also tried a red pesto version, which feta cheese adds a bit of savory touch. You can of course combine it with your favorite toast toppings!"
