Egg & Soldiers

Time for breakfast at our place is never common, so when we have it, we like to make it a little special. 
Egg & Soldiers is a classic British breakfast that is simple and oh so good. What are 'soldiers'? They are thin strips of toast with the sole purpose of diving into your soft-boiled egg. So tasty. 

For this breakfast I recommend boiling your egg anywhere between 5-7 minutes. Of course the timing depends on how runny you like them. (I boiled mine for 6.)




Once the bread is toasted, I buttered it first and then cut it into thin strips. You can use any kind of toast you like - we had our favourite, Italian Cheese bread, from Terra Breads. 


On the plate I put a small mound of salt & pepper to sprinkle on as you go. Tomato or avocado slices are a perfect side for this breakfast. 




I hope you like it as much as we do!
