You'll want plenty of baguette slices to soak up the delicious sauce!

  • 1 (32-oz) jar tomato basil pasta sauce (about 4 cups)
  • 8 eggs
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil, snipped into strips with scissors, optional
  • 1 medium baguette, sliced horizontally in half
  • Olive oil

    In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, bring the pasta sauce to a boil.

    Gently break the eggs into the sauce. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 5 minutes.

    Remove skillet from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes or until yolks are cooked to desired doneness.

    Serve with the eggs for dipping.
  • To prepare the basil, wash and dry the leaves, stack them on top of each other, fold or roll the stack, and snip into thin strips with sharp scissors.
