Fried egg wih basil chiffonade

I decided to try something a little different today and spruce up my fried eggs. Since I have a huge bush of basil growing on my porch I figured I would use that.
So, I caramelized some diced onion and fried two eggs (sunny side up). I brushed olive oil onto two slices of bread and toasted it (I realized recently that this works great in a toaster), placed a slice of picante provolone (Boar's Head) on each piece of toast and then some of the onions. Topped that with the eggs and then a chiffonade of basil.
It is very tasty, the freshness of the basil and the sweetness of the onion and richness of the cheese compliment the egg very well.
