Quiche-style French toast

INGREDIENTS (SERVES 2):

2 slices of bread

1 tbsp olive oil

2 eggs

180 ml milk

3 tbsp powdered Parmesan cheese

2 strips of bacon

¼ stalk of spinach

10 grams unsalted butter

Salt

Pepper

DIRECTIONS:

1. Add the eggs, ¼ teaspoon of salt, powdered cheese and a pinch of black pepper in a bowl and mix. Then add milk. Place the sliced bread and egg mixture into a resealable bag and let it sit for five minutes. 2. Slice the bacon into 5-millimeter-wide pieces and cut the spinach into 3-centimeter-long portions. Add butter to the pan and fry the bacon. Then add the spinach and sprinkle a little salt and pepper.

3. Heat olive oil in a separate pan and brown both sides of the bread. Plate the French toast, then place the bacon and spinach beside it.

The smell of cheese can be intoxicating, and the dish can look even more professional if a fried egg is placed on top, among other toppings.
