In the summer, one of my favorite ways to have tomatoes is Pan Am Tomaquet - much simpler than the name sounds, but just as grand tasting.  This morning I decided to try a twist on the original. I added a fried egg and slices of tomato.  It was delicious.

Egg Tomato Toast
1 egg
1 tomato
1 garlic clove
1 slice of sourdough bread or French baguette
olive oil
salt 

1. While the bread is toasting, fry an egg (I like mine with the yolk poked - gooey but not runny). 
2. When the toast is done, rub the whole surface with a cut garlic clove.  
3. Cut a tomato in half - cut one half into slices and set aside momentarily.  
4. Press the other half into the toast all over the surface (like you're stamping), so the bread soaks up the juices. 
5. Drizzle olive oil over the toast and sprinkle with salt.
6. Top with fried egg and tomato slices. Sprinkle with more salt (I used truffle salt).

Enjoy!

If you're craving deviled eggs, but don't feel like making a batch, try this instead:  
Cut a hard boiled egg in half, remove the yolk to a small bowl, mash with a teaspoon of mayo and a squirt of sriracha (a.k.a. rooster sauce), put it back into the whites, place them together (sandwich style), sprinkle with salt, and enjoy...you might want to make two :)
