Saute garlic till brown add basil.

Add can of tomato sauce and simmer.

Once heated, make indentations in the sauce for your eggs.

Break eggs into holes, cover and cook until eggs are done. Season and serve.

Note From Mr Breakfast:

I'd put out the word that I didn't know what Tony's Cachare was and you great breakfast lovers responded like crazy.

The answer: Tony Cachere's is a spicy salt mix seasoning - totally tasty but a bit salty! You can see it here.

Thanks breakfast lovers!


This is an intersting take on the dish often know as "Birdies In A Nest" or "A Hole In One".

Mr Breakfast would like to thank chelseagrl for this recipe.

I've always known this as 'eggs in purgatory'. Directions here are a little spotty. We use 1 clove of garlic (minced) and 2 tablespoons of basil (finely chopped). We also add grated Parmesan on top. It's very tasty.
