Servings: 4

Ingredients

Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Bell peppers
2 cups, sliced (mix of red, yellow, and green for color)
Eggs
4 large
Salt
to taste
Black pepper
to taste
Butter
2 tablespoons, softened
Bread rolls
4, preferably ciabatta or hoagie rolls

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
  3. While the peppers are cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Once the peppers are ready, pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, stirring gently to combine with the peppers. Cook until the eggs are fully scrambled and just set, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. While the eggs are cooking, slice the bread rolls in half and spread the softened butter on the cut sides.
  6. Toast the buttered side of the bread rolls in another skillet or under a broiler until golden brown.
  7. Divide the pepper and egg mixture evenly among the toasted bread rolls, then close the sandwiches.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Pepper and Egg Sandwich!
