Eggs and Toast
This is Christopher's favorite dish
Teresa gets 5 eggs and puts them in a bowl with some butter
and milk.
She toasts the bread by lightly frying it in Olive oil. She
then fries the egg mixture until it is golden brown. Then
serves it on the fried bread.
Christopher usually loves it with a glass of cold fresh milk.
