Red Pepper, Feta, and Basil EggSummer is almost here! Around this time of year, I can’t help fighting the urge to plant an herb garden. Ha! Try weeding that all summer with three little ones in the heat! I have discovered a short cut way to enjoy my fresh herbs with much less work. I make a trip to a local greenhouse or nursery and purchase herb plants already potted and well on their way. In fact, when I bring them home, I can start using them immediately. Some I keep in pots on my kitchen windowsill and some I replant to pots on my deck where my “mini garden” will be more manageable. Even if you don’t have time for a garden, you can buy just one small herb plant and expand your summer menu. Here are some “fresh” ideas to use basil.
*Prep Time (10 minutes)*
Ingredients:
- Egg
- Red pepper
- Feta cheese
- Basil
Directions:
Dice red pepper, cut basil leaves, and have crumbled feta cheese ready. Spray small fry pan generously. Crack egg into pan and break yolk. Fry approximately 2 minutes. Sprinkle the diced red pepper, crumbled feta, and basil on top of egg, season with some black pepper to taste. Let egg finish cooking with cover on fry pan to steam the pepper and melt the cheese.
