  • 8 slices calabrese or whole-grain bread
  • 4 tsp ketchup

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/8 tsp fresh-ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. Add bacon and cook until crisp, 5 to 7 min. Transfer bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate.
  • Crack eggs into bacon fat and fry over easy, 1 to 2 min. Season with pepper.
