Scrambled Peppers and Eggs image

As in many Mark Bittman recipes, the idea here is more vegetables -- in this case, peppers -- than protein. It works because except for the jalapeño, none of the peppers is hot.

PEPPER 'N EGG HOAGIE



Pepper 'N Egg Hoagie image

I have hemmed and hawed about putting this recipe on here because a dear friend of mine that owned a sub ship in Pattsburgh, New York gave it to me. He's retired now, so I don't think he would mind. Now this is something that you just have to try before making up your mind about it. I was pregnant with my son when we lived...

Categories     Other Main Dishes

Time 30m

4 medium hoagie buns (only italian)
1 small jar of pasta sauce or you can use your own
1 medium red bell pepper
4 large eggs, eaten with a splash of cream or milk
1/2 c parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste
drizzle of olive oil

Steps:

  • 1. Cut and seed one large red pepper, and cut into one inch strips. Coat skillet with olive oil. Cook peppers in skillet on low heat until they are soft. In the meantime, beat eggs with a splash of cream, salt and pepper and garlic salt. Pour eggs in with the peppers and stir until done, incorporating the pepper into the eggs. Spread buns or sliced Italian bread with pasta sauce and layer on the eggs. Sprinkle each with fresh parmesan cheese. I usually wrap mine in foil and stick in the oven for a little while to get the buns soft and warm.
