Darlin...I love you Breakfast !

Convection Oven  Baking time 25 minutes
Preparation time 10 minutes
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Serves 2-4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
·                  Parchment paper lined Baking dish, I use the one that came with the Convection Oven
·                  One mixing bowl, medium
·                  One small bowl
·                  Measuring spoons
·                  Small sauce pan, fill with water to 2 inches from the top
·                  Wooden or bamboo mixing spoon
·                  Wire Whisk
·                  Metal spatula for serving

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1.               ½ Sweet Onion, diced into 1 to ½ inch pieces
2.               6 small red potatoes, diced into ½ inch pieces
3.               1 each small orange and yellow Sweet Bell Pepper, diced into 1 to ½ inch pieces
4.               1 Package Applegate Turkey Bacon, slice into 2 inch pieces
5.               2 Tablespoons per portion of Pecorino cheese, grated for garnish
6.               1 Tablespoon, Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar
7.               4 Large Eggs, carefully cracked into a small bowl
8.               1 teaspoon each of thyme, dill, paprika, white pepper
9.               1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Begin by starting your oven to preheat at 425 degrees.

Place into your medium bowl the sweet onion, red potatoes and orange and yellow sweet bell peppers together and mix well with mixing spoon. Add herbs and extra virgin olive oil and mix very well coating all together. Tip onto parchment lined baking dish, spreading evenly from edge to edge. Place the turkey bacon pieces covering it all, it should make a nice single layer over the entire pan.

Place in preheated 425 degree oven and set timer for 25 minutes.

Take your Pecorino cheese and using the small size on your grater so you have enough for each person and set aside.



Crack the eggs carefully into the small bowl.



Now take the small pan with water and add the vinegar and turn on to high heat. When it comes to a rolling boil use your whisk to stir the hot water into a whirlpool. Remove your whisk and as the bubbles and hot water continue to swirl pour in the eggs from the bowl and set your timer to 4 minutes and turn the heat immediately lower to medium heat.






Check your oven, the turkey bacon should be crispy on one side and if you take a fork and pierce a piece of red potato, it should be tender yet firm.



I use a wide metal spatula to lift from the just ready piping hot oven veggies and turkey bacon into bowls. Sprinkle generously with the cheese.

When the eggs are done, lift one egg out at a time with the wire whisk, holding it over the pan to drain all the remaining cooking water from the egg. Place so it is on top of the veggies. Do this with each egg.


Pinch of thyme, dill, white pepper and paprika.
