½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped, divided
4 slices of fresh mozzarella cheese
⅓ cup chopped fresh basil
4 slices of whole grain bread, toasted
4 slices of tomato

5. Transfer each egg and cheese portion to a slice of toasted bread. Top each with 2 tomato slices, a few grinds of black pepper, 2 slices of prosciutto, and half of the spinach and basil mixture. Top with the remaining slices of bread.
