Ingredients

  • One 8-ounce loaf French bread, cut diagonally into 6 slices

  • 1 cup egg substitute

  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons 1% milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 ounce pancetta, diced

  • 4 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced lengthwise

  • 1/4 cup (1 ounce) Fontina cheese, shredded

Directions

  • Preheat the broiler.

  • Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Broil 2 minutes or until the tops are toasted. Remove from the oven. Turn the slices over; set aside on baking sheet.

  • Combine the egg substitute, basil, milk, salt, pepper, and egg, stirring with a whisk.

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and pancetta; sauté 3 minutes or until the pancetta begins to crisp. Add the egg mixture to the pan; cook 2 minutes or just until set, stirring gently.

  • Divide the egg mixture evenly over the bread slices. Top the egg mixture with the tomatoes, and sprinkle with the cheese. Broil 2 minutes or until the cheese melts and begins to brown. Serve immediately.
