Preparation

Step 1

In a mug, place the bread cubes. In a small bowl, add the egg and milk and whisk until lightly beaten. Add the pesto and cheese and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over the bread and press down allowing the bread to soak up the mixture.
Top with 2 additional tablespoons of cheese. Place in the microwave and cook on medium power for 2-3 minutes.
