Baked Egg with Sausage, Mushroom, and Basil Marinara on Toast
This recipe was inspired by a fellow food blogger, Larry, who makes the most amazing breakfasts with his leftovers. I had leftover bread and sausage, mushroom, and basil marinara sauce from the pasta dinner we had last night. Instead of pasta with the sauce for lunch, I decided to bake an egg on top of the marinara sauce, then serve it with a piece of buttery toast. It was super simple to make and took only 15 minutes. I have a feeling I will be having this for lunch again tomorrow.

Good morning Pam….Looks like a fantastic breakfast indeed!!!

Comforting perfection. LOVE this.
Who is this Larry that you speak of? ha ha
He is the king of breakfasts but you are royalty too, creating dishes like this one, Pam. I like the acidity the marinara brings to this.
I would eat this 3 meals a day!
Fantastic way of using up leftovers! Eggs are magic at turning leftovers into breakfast.
