SHAMROCK EGGS
Ingredients
- 1 green bell pepper

- shredded cheese (I use a Mexican blend)
Directions
- Slice bell pepper about 1/2 inch thick to form a ring. Scoop out any seeds but try to let the shape remain intact to that it looks like a 4 leaf clover.

- Add the egg to the center of the pepper. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover pan and cook for 3-5 minutes.
