Garlic Olive Oil

Ingredients

  • 1 14.5 oz can of tomatoes, finely diced
  • 3 slices roasted red pepper, canned & finely diced
  • 3 large eggs, beaten
  • 1⁄3 cup feta, crumbled plus more for garnish
  • 2 cloves garlic, microplaned
  • 1 clove garlic, whole
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon oregano, dried
  • 2 teaspoons Kosterina Garlic Olive Oil, plus more to drizzle
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • fresh parsley or fresh basil, to garnish
  • garlic bread, for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat a medium size pan on medium to high heat with one teaspoon of olive oil. Toast the bread on both sides until golden brown. Immediately, rub one side of the bread with a whole garlic clove. Then sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Using the same pan, heat one teaspoon of olive oil on medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until golden brown. Then add the tomatoes, bell peppers, oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine all ingredients, and cook for three to four minutes.

  3. 3

    Add in the eggs and cook until scrambled. Take the pan off of the heat, and gently fold in the crumbled feta.

  4. 4

    Spoon the egg scramble onto the toasted bread. Garnish with additional feta, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of Kosterina Garlic Olive Oil.

  5. 5

    *Pro Tip: Take the eggs off of the heat sooner than you think. They will continue to cook in the pan even off heat.
