Instructions
Preparation
- Gather all your ingredients and kitchen tools. You will need heart-shaped cookie cutters, a non-stick frying pan, and mixing bowls.
Cooking
- Cook the heart-shaped eggs by placing a cookie cutter in the frying pan, cracking eggs into it, and cooking until the whites are set (3-4 minutes on medium heat).
- While the eggs are cooking, preheat your toaster or a separate pan. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut shapes from the slices of bread and toast until golden brown (2-3 minutes).
- Prepare the pancake mix according to the instructions on the package. Pour the batter into heart-shaped molds on a preheated griddle or frying pan (cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown).
- Slice the strawberries while the pancakes are cooking for garnish.
- Spread Nutella on the heart-shaped toast and top with sliced strawberries.
- Layer ham and cheese inside the remaining heart-shaped bread to create sandwiches.
- Arrange the heart-shaped eggs, pancakes, toast, and sandwiches artistically on a plate with sliced strawberries on the side.
Notes
Avoid overcooking the eggs and ensure optimal presentation by arranging the plate neatly. This meal is perfect for special occasions like Valentine's Day, anniversaries, or birthdays.
