This recipe is one that our recipe developers turn to quite often. Cherry tomatoes are reliably sweet and readily available year-round. If you don’t have ricotta cheese, you can swap in cottage cheese, Greek yogurt or mascarpone. While we favor runny yolks and like how they coat the toast and tomatoes, hard yolks are just fine too. Simply cook the eggs a minute or two longer.
½ cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, plus leaves for garnish
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
⅜ teaspoon salt, divided
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 cups cherry tomatoes
2 large eggs
2 slices crusty whole-wheat bread (½-inch-thick), toasted
Crushed red pepper for garnish (optional)
