Ingredients
- 2 ½ ounce sweet mini peppers by tesco
- 2 large raw egg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper by simply organic
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 slice – 6" long bacon
- ¼ cup, shredded sharp cheddar
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. Spray an oven-safe baking dish with pan spray. Prepare the mini sweet peppers by cutting off the tops. Cut each pepper in half, and remove any seeds. Arrange the peppers in the baking dish.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper, and red pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium pan. Cook the eggs on medium heat, continually stirring the eggs until they scramble to your preferred doneness. You may want to under-cook your eggs slightly, since they will cook more in the oven.
- Scoop the scrambled eggs over the peppers in the baking dish. Cook the two strips of bacon in the same pan as before until the bacon is crispy. Once the bacon is cooked, chop it into bacon bits.
- Sprinkle the bacon bits over the sweet peppers. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top as well.
- Cook the dish, uncovered, in the oven for 10 minutes. The cheese should melt and turn slightly golden brown.
