Spruced Up Eggs


One of my hubby's favorite things to eat is egg sanwiches. Eggs are a great source of protein but can sometimes get boring.

Ingredients:
  • 1/3 C Green Peppers (chopped)
  • 1/3 C Onions (chopped) 
  • Sea Salt & Pepper
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 t Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
  • 1 or 2 Slices of American Cheese (optional-I rarely eat cheese so I don't add cheese to my eggs but my hubby loves cheese on his; just remember that this adds calories and other stuff)


Calories: 2 Servings at 176 calories per serving without cheese (352 Calories per entire recipe without cheese)

Directions:
In a small skillet heat oil to medium-high. Add the peppers and onions. Cook until onions are tender and slightly browned.


In a separate skillet cook eggs as you normally would (scrambled or fried). Then sprinkle them with sea salt and pepper to taste and add the peppers and onions on them. Then, if desired, add cheese. Reduce heat to low. Cover with a lid to let all the flavors come together and the cheese melt.

They are ready to eat! You can either eat them like they are or put them between 2 pieces of bread and make an egg sandwich. Just remember to go whole wheat ;-). This recipe will make 2 egg sandwiches.
