Directions:

- Arrange the bread on foil covered baking trays and grill until golden brown on both sides.
- Spread with dill pesto.
- Heat the butter in a large non-stick saute pan, over low heat.
- Add the combined eggs and milk.
- As the egg begins to set, use a wooden spoon to scrape along the base with long strokes to bring the cooked egg to the surface in large lumps.
- Repeat several times for about 5-8 minutes or until the mixture is cooked but still creamy-looking.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the egg among the toasts and top with the torn prosciutto.
