Instructions
Preheat the oven to broil. Place the slices of French bread, sprayed with olive oil cooking spray on both sides, on top of the rack. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil. Add the tomatoes and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes or until the tomatoes are softened and starting to burst; add the spinach and cook for 1 minute or until wilted. Remove from heat.
While the tomatoes are cooking prepare the poached eggs. Add water to a pan, filling it two-thirds full; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer. Coat a poaching cup (or custard cup) with cooking spray then place in the water. Break the egg into the cup then cover the pan with a lid and cook for 4-6 minutes or until the whites are firm but the yolk is soft.
Layer the slices of toasted French bread with the tomato/spinach mixture and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese then top with a poached egg.
Sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
