Egg and Toast in a Mug Recipe

I always thought the microwave was an appliance for thawing frozen goods or warming up leftovers. Then I discovered microwave recipes! A twist on the traditional poached egg on toast, this microwave meal is the perfect way to start the day.

You can also simply break the egg into the mug, season with salt and pepper and let the bread cubes soak for a minute. Then microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until the egg is cooked. Call that an old-timey breakfast!
