Brilliant Brunch

After Mike came home with a Costco-sized package of prosciutto, we have found many delicious uses for it! I can't say enough for this brunch idea; it's one of my favourites. Feel free to omit the jalapeno and Tabasco if you're not big on heat.

Ingredients
2 English muffins
1/2 tomato, diced
1 jalapeno, finely diced
4-5 mushrooms (any type), diced
1/4 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tbsp oil
4 pieces prosciutto
4 thin slices of aged white cheddar (Havarti would also be awesome here)
4 eggs
fresh black pepper to taste
a few squirts of Tabasco sauce

Instructions
In a small sauce pan, fry tomatoes, mushrooms, onion powder, paprika and jalapeno together over med-low heat, stirring occasionally.

Toast English muffins, then in a large skillet heat oil over med-high heat. Add eggs to hot skillet evenly spread out to avoid having them run together. Sprinkle with ground pepper and Tabasco sauce. Cook for a few minutes, until whites are opaque, then gently flip for just a minute on each side. (Or longer if you prefer a hard yolk.)

Remove tomato and mushroom mixture as well as eggs from heat. Assemble as follows. English muffin down first, then prosciutto followed by cheese, egg and topped with the tomato mixture.
