These Smoked Salmon and Scrambled Eggs Breakfast Toasts are a delicious and nutritious way to start off your day. Bonus: they are really easy to make!
These decadent little Smoked Salmon and Scrambled Eggs Breakfast Toasts are what I whipped up for brunch today. Although they feel indulgent and special compared to our regular weekday breakfasts, they are simple enough for a weekday too.
These toasts are super easy to do and little skill or time required! Essentially, if you can toast an English muffin and make some scrambled eggs, you are well on your way to making this delicious breakfast.
As simple as they are, somehow adding smoked salmon to this simple breakfast toast elevates it and makes it feel special. It also makes these extra delicious!
I added a little flair by adding a quenelle (a classic three-sided oval-esque shape made using two spoons) of cream cheese. No need to be so extra, though. You can simply spread the cream cheese on the English muffins instead.
