Lets make some eggs for breakfast. All these ingredients are from my garden - cayenne pepper, garlic, onion, and tomatoes.
Eggs from the Maple Meadows Farm close by down the road in Salisbury, Vermont.
And of course since I'm in Vermont with all the dairy farms I use butter.
My old cast iron pan is ready to go.
I'm going to make a sandwich so some thick sliced bread for toast.
I start by putting the bread in my ancient toaster oven.
Then I saute the onions and garlic.
While the onions and garlic are cooking down, I slice up the pepper. Raw cayenne pepper is very hot which I love 😋
And slice the tomato.
Next crack the eggs into a bowl.
I beat up the eggs today because its prettier but some times I just do the eggs over easy.
Technically you should take the sauteed onions and garlic out of the pan and add them back in later but you can get away with just adding the eggs in if you are careful.
Then spread the onions and garlic out over the eggs before the eggs set up.
Next fold the eggs over.
Then flip them over to cook the other side. Lovely like this but we are going to make a sandwich.
The toast is done so lets plate up the sandwich.
I split the eggs into three sections.
Add the peppers.
Now the tomatos. And you are done. The cool tomatoes are great with the hot eggs and spicy peppers. Enjoy!
Here is the pan after cooking. The great thing about a well seasoned cast iron pan (and lots of butter 😉) is the eggs don't stick at all.
Just wipe out the pan. Thats all the clean up necessary.
This post was inspired by @rentmoney asking what my favorite meal of the day is 👍
That looks delicious.
I was munching on some pancakes while reading your post :)
Washed down with a cup of coffee.
Enjoy some Deathwish right now ☕ The Maple Meadows Farm I get my eggs from also makes maple syrup. Hope you have some good Vermont maple syrup for those pancakes 🙂
Maple Meadows is great! Although the area I live in now has plenty of great local farms, I do definitely miss the small farming community I grew up with in Vermont. Cheers!
Cheers! Vermont small farms are great 👍
Geez, you are like my helper friend who adores all things hot. I couldn't imagine hot peppers for breakfast! The rest sounded really good though!
Thanks. What I really like is later in the summer/fall my wife will start making salsa I can put on my eggs 😋
