Peppers, spinach, and eggs

To be honest, I’m not sure where this recipe came from. I think I saw an image and then tried to make my own version because I couldn’t remember where I’d seen it.

I absolutely love eggs, and since my last surgery, I can tolerate most fruit and veg, so I have been making the most of it! You never know when a new stricture may develop, or flare may begin!

If you’re following a low residue diet, then this dish is not for you, but it IS wheat-free and gluten-free. If you’re a vegetarian who eats eggs, then swapping the parmesan for a vegetarian alternative makes it suitable for you too!

This recipe serves two, but I often halve the ingredients and do it in a smaller pan, for just me!

Diections to make peppers, spinach, and eggs:

1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.
2. In a large frying pan/skillet, cook the onions and peppers in oil, over medium heat for around 5 minutes.
3. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and dried chilli flakes.
4. Add the baby spinach and move around in the pan until wilted and even distributed.
5. If you are using canned tomatoes, add those now, and warm through.
6. Check the seasoning.

9. I usually top the eggs with a little pepper - Serve and enjoy!
