The former Good Morning Britain star caused quite the stir on Instagram on Tuesday morning after posting his unusual breakfast recipe: "Belazu truffle and artichoke pesto and Moroccan Genio cherry tomatoes topped on toasted Profusion organic rye & flax protein bread". That's quite the mouthful!
Piers Morgan is a keen foodie
Since his departure from GMB's breakfast show alongside co-host Susanna Reid, Piers clearly has more time in his mornings to whip up experimental creations in the kitchen. This recipe, in particular, has divided his 1.6 million Instagram followers.
The broadcaster shared his decadent creation on Instagram along with the caption: "BREAKING: I've created the greatest breakfast ever made" before going on to claim his tomato topped toast was "absolutely sensational" urging his followers to try it for themselves and thank him later.
Would you try Piers' truffle and tomato topped toast?
Fans were unsure on Piers' controversial breakfast, with many convinced his recipe was far more suitable for a light lunch.
Taking to the comments to slam the presenter for his tomato toast that was "too posh" for an average weekly shop, one fan joked: "Nice one, I'll just nip to Asda to buy all that", whilst another teased: "Do I need a mortgage to buy all this!?".
