  • 8 whole large eggs, room temperature for fluffier texture
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, divided: 2 tbsp for eggs, 1 tbsp for flatbread
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 medium fresh tomatoes, diced, or 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 3 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 whole garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 pieces whole wheat flatbread, store-bought, 6-inch rounds
