Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 Large bell peppers
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup Grated cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Instructions
Start by selecting a large bell pepper and slice it horizontally to create two thick rings, about 1/2 inch each.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Place the bell pepper rings in the skillet and crack one egg into the center of each ring.
Season the eggs with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your desired level of doneness.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese over the eggs during the last minute of cooking. Cover again to allow the cheese to melt.
Once cooked, carefully use a spatula to lift each Low Carb Egg in a Hole onto a plate.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Enjoy your delicious and healthy low carb breakfast!
