Scrambled Eggs with Dill, Cream Cheese, and Croutons

This was an interesting combo. It essentially incorporates the toast as a topping for the eggs rather than a substrate. It works pretty well. Although I think I preferred the kielbasa and arugula scrambled eggs overall. Still, it was a fun experiment.
