Bear with me…I know pizza is not to be messed with, BUT I still really enjoy the flavors of pizza without the impending delayed blood sugar spike from the crust, and the overall gross feeling I get when I eat any grain in general. Years ago Seth introduced me to his favorite kind of pizza – pepperoni and banana (pepperoncini) pepper, YUM. The spiciness of the pepperoni with the vinegary-ness of the peppers is a perfect match! Last Thursday I was craving eggs, but with some different flavor. I happened to have uncured pepperoni and banana peppers, with a few other ingredients so I decided to make a pepperoni pizza egg scramble – really easy and tasty!
Pepperoni Pizza Egg Scramble
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup mild banana peppers, cut into pieces (I would’ve added more, but that’s all I had)
- 1/2 cup uncured pepperoni, cut into pieces
- 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes, cut into pieces
- Garlic goat cheese
- 2 TBSP ghee
- Salt/pepper
Melt ghee in a saute pan and break eggs, scrambling. Add cut up pepperoni, banana peppers and sun dried tomatoes (I find it easiest to use kitchen shears and just cut right into the pan). Continue sauteing until eggs are cooked and all other ingredients are warm. Season with salt, pepper and top with dollops of garlic goat cheese.
