Notes
You can use your favorite bread. French bread or Texas Toast or sandwich bread will also work.
Cook on medium or medium-low heat, so bread doesn't burn.
For sunny side up eggs, do not flip after adding the eggs to the bread.
To easily flip the eggs, slide a spatula under the toast, and quickly flip it over -- no hesitating works best!
