Instructions
- Dice vegetables and grate cheese.
- Mix eggs together with nothing but a little bit of water, seasoning as diet will permit, and whip with a whisk.
- Set eggs to one side.
- Add olive oil to a frying pan (just enough to cook, maybe a TBSP).
- Heat to medium high heat.
- Add green peppers and cook for about 3-5 minutes, stirring mindfully.
- Add tomatoes, continuing to sauté, and in a few minutes, add green onions (scallions), continuing to sauté for another 2-5 minutes.
- Put vegetable mixture on low and to one side (eg, simmer at very low heat for flavors to mingle).
- In a totally separate pan, melt butter to a medium heat. (Do not cook eggs in same frying pan as you cooked the vegetables.)
- Once separate pan is hot, add egg mixture and cook to the consistency of moderately scrambled eggs; then fold in vegetable mixture.
- Continue to cook until mixture is the consistency of scrambled eggs (at this point, the dish won't look like much).
- Add grated cheddar cheese to top but do not mix (use a good amount -until covered).
- Place cover on for about 5 minutes max.
- When you uncover it, it will be beautiful and very tasty.
- Serve it right out of the pan, just like a crustless quiche.
