Eggs Fried with Tomato in Bell Pepper Ring Recipe: Step 8
Looking for bright colors for fresh and energetic start of the day? This is your recipe: easy nutritious breakfast eggs and very fun looking also, when prepared accurately. I bet your kids will love them as much as I do.
I usually pick green peppers, they look good in combination with yellow-white eggs and red tomatoes. But any color will work here, just make sure you select big and nice shaped pepper.
Don’t worry if egg white spills around the bell pepper ring, you can easily remove it later on with spatula.
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 tomato
- 1 bell pepper
- Butter
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
- Leaf of fresh dill for decoration
How to prepare, step-by-step:

Carefully crack an egg into one of the bell pepper rings right over the tomato, don’t worry if a bit of egg white gets out, you can simply remove it later on (but if too much spills that is a sign to get bigger bell pepper, or slice rings thicker, or use smaller eggs):

Sunny I made this but used orange bell pepper (less the tomato), seasoned with Penzey's Sunny Paris and topped off with sharp cheddar cheese for my wife and me. My daughter wanted Colby Jack cheese. It was a hit for our Sunday breakfast.
Ill try this tomorrow for breakfast..
Crowd pleaser with a dash of Tabasco.
If you like to drink eggs not eat them this is the perfect recipe. The tomato and the butom of the pepper burns the hell out and the egg remains raw... beside this I redecorate the kitchen....
I'm not sure but I think the egg is prepared separately and then inserted into the bell pepper...
How do I pin this?
Unfortunately, you will have to use the pinterest website itself to pin it. I can't figure out why their JS snippet doesn't work.
UPD: I think I figured out what was wrong, and tried to correct it, can you verify on your side if it is working for you?
Pretty interesting idea! I never knew you could make bell peppers into rings for that sunny-side up dish. Will try this for next breakfast. :)
just made this (: awesome, chopped up a turkey hotdog and onions. deff a good way to start off a diet. thank you!!!
I tried. But it came out good. I was so close but it was still taste good
Wow thanks now I have something to cook for my mom tomorow in the morning as a way of telling her thank you for all your hard work (:
Hi, Your recipe is great but - I'm having some trouble with it.
My egg is too runny and takes too long to cook. By the time its somewhat firm, the bottom is black and awful. Even turning up the heat doesn't help... it just burns the bottom quicker.
How do I get the whites to cook faster before then bottom burns? (I don't mind the yolk runny though)
Thanks!
Turn of a heat a bit and use lid, that should do the trick, the cooking time will increase but bottoms will not be burned.
