Preparation of the Salad

Begin by mixing the chopped tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, and mixed salad greens in a bowl. Garnish with parsley and add the salad dressing or oil of your choice. Toss gently to make sure everything is evenly coated and set aside.

Assembly of the Open-Faced Sandwich

Toast a slice of your preferred bread until it reaches your desired level of crispiness. Cook one large egg to your liking (poached, fried, or scrambled) and place it atop the toasted bread. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and optionally paprika for extra flavor. Finally, add the melted cheese over the egg and allow it to gently envelop the egg with its creamy texture.
