Green Eggs And Ham For Grownups

• 2 slices bread
• 1 garlic clove
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup ricotta cheese
• 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
• 2 thin slices of prosciutto
• butter for cooking
• salt and pepper to taste

1. Toast the slices of bread until golden. Butter, if desired, then lightly rub each on one side with the clove of garlic.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, ricotta, and basil. (I like to whisk in the ricotta at the start because I like how light and fluffy it makes the eggs. If you prefer creamy eggs, wait until the eggs are nearly done cooking, take them off the heat and then stir in the ricotta).
3. Melt a small amount of butter in a frying pan. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring frequently, pushing the cooked egg from the bottom to allow the uncooked egg on top to flow under and cook.
4. When the eggs look close to done but are still somewhat wet looking, remove them from the heat. Stir in salt and pepper to taste.
5. Divide the eggs in half and pile on top of the pieces of toast. Top with the slices of prosciutto. Enjoy!
