Ingredients 

  • Eggs (2-3)
  • White bread (2 slices)
  • Milk (1/2 cup)
  • Salt and Pepper (add to taste)
  • Butter (Just enough to spread on bread)
  • Bacon (3-4 slices)
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese (1/3 cup)
  • Tabasco (optional)
Directions

First heat stove top, medium to high heat. Then place bacon strips on pan and flip every 45 seconds or so or until cooked to a crisp. Remove from pan and place on paper towel to remove excess grease. Then crack eggs into a small bowl, add milk, salt and pepper. Whisk until blended. Pour egg mixture into same pan used to cook bacon. Let cook for a minute then use spatula to mix eggs in pan. While eggs are cooking, place bread in toaster. After toasting, spread a thin layer of butter on each slice. When the eggs are solid and no longer runny remove from heat. Place cooked bacon on bread, then add scrambled eggs and top with cheese. “Smush together” and enjoy.

In a pan over medium heat combine the olive oil and the diced bell pepper.  Sautee the bell peppers until the peppers are soft and a little charred. Crack eggs in a bowl and scramble with a fork. Pour the eggs in the pan working in the bell peppers throughout.  Plate the eggs and pour the salsa over the eggs followed by the Sriracha sauce. If you believe this dish might be too spicy feel free to substitute a lighter bell pepper and exclude the Sriracha sauce.
