Peppers and Eggs
Peppers and Eggs are Italian scrambled eggs with charred sweet bell peppers served with bread. This breakfast combo came from an Italian woman herself and even my non-pepper eater loved this breakfast!
Equipment
- 12" non-stick skillet
Ingredients
Peppers and Eggs:
- 3 colored sweet bell peppers (orange, yellow, and red) seeded and washed
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- 5 eggs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
How to make Peppers and Eggs:
- Heat a large non-stick skillet with oil over medium-high heat. Thickly slice the peppers vertically. Sear the peppers partly covered until charred, stirring occasionally (10 minutes.)
- Add the eggs and scramble into the peppers until cooked through (1-2 minutes.)
- Serve with crusty Italian Bread or French Bread. Delicious!
Notes
Notes: the most flavor comes from charred bell peppers so it's important NOT to skip this step! The amount of oil helps this process.
Make sandwiches: by toasting the bread and piling it up with the egg and pepper filling. Add cheese if desired and toast until cheese melts.
