The traditional American Breakfast- Eggs on Toast gets a revamp! An amazing hors d’oeuvre to be served along with your cocktail!

Like seriously? Am I really talking about Eggs on Toast? How can it be a party food? It’s the American breakfast! Oh, please hold on before you arrive at a conclusion. Eggs on Toast can be served as a tasty appetizer too. Quick and easy to prepare and definitely goes with your drinks. You may want to try it.

Last day, I told you about how our cocktail parties are held. These formal affairs are finished off well before dinner and generally only soup and heavy snacks are served. Eggs on Toast is a pretty popular appetizer in our Fauji (Army) family. I have no idea how this traditional breakfast ended up as a cocktail appetizer. But I guess when you are posted to a remote location where you do not have the luxury of a bountiful market, shops or bakeries, you simply ought to be innovative and make the best out of it.

Hors d’oeuvre are appetizers, usually a small bit of savory food as fish, meat or cheese served atop crackers or toasts. Eggs are delicious and simple. You can make so many different dishes outta them, that too in a matter of minutes. Maybe, that’s the reason I have always loved eggs.
