Seasoning and Condiments:
- 2 tablespoons sour cream

Instructions
- Carefully slice the crisp baguette into uniform medallion-shaped pieces approximately 1-inch thick, ensuring even thickness for consistent toasting.

- Transfer golden-edged toasted baguette rounds onto serving platter, creating an elegant base for egg placement.
- Artfully position cooked eggs atop each toasted baguette slice, allowing gentle overlap onto surface.
- Distribute freshly diced tomato and thinly sliced onion across egg-topped baguette pieces, ensuring colorful and vibrant coverage.

Notes
- Choose fresh, crusty baguettes for the best texture and flavor, ensuring they’re slightly crisp when toasted.
- Experiment with different egg cooking styles to suit personal preferences, from fluffy scrambled to perfectly poached.
- Customize the vegetable toppings by adding roasted bell peppers, sautéed spinach, or avocado slices for extra nutrition and variety.
- For a lighter version, swap sour cream with Greek yogurt and use egg whites to reduce calories while maintaining delicious taste.
