Sweet Mini Peppers


I discovered sweet mini pepper, because I wanted pepper taste and more vegetables in my diet. I hate cooked green peppers. I like uncooked better, but the taste stays with me all day and night. And I burp all day too. So Sweet Mini Peppers turned out to be the best solution for me.

Then sweet mini peppers led me to other discoveries

Omelet experiments

  • Melted unsalted butter in sauté pan.
  • Beat 2 eggs in a bowl.
  • Added the meat (ground turkey) to the pan.
  • Poured the egg.
  • Let the eggs set and loosened the sides with a fork or spatula.
(The eggs should be set enough to slide around in the pan.)
  • Vine Sweet Mini PeppersFlipped over the omelet.
  • Added shredded cheese to one side of omelet.
  • Folded over one side over the cheese.
  • Slid the omelet on to a plate and topped with a little shredded cheese.
  • I tried the same with sautéed sweet mini peppers, sliced in thin rings, sautéed until limp in unsaltedbutter, about 2 peppers.
I tried yellow squash then eggplant, julienned really thin and sautéed until limp.
Tried zucchini, eggplant, and sweet yellow onion mixture 

Next experiment


Different cheese a sharp cheddar cheese blend. I was using taco blend or cojack cheese for all previous omelets

Eggs

I reduced the eggs to 2 because I found it was easier to flip with 2 eggs

Butter

I use unsalted butter, so I can have the butter taste without the extra salt.

Another cheese experiment

Tried blue cheese crumbles in my omelets. It's good but I find a little bit is best. Or mixing a little sharp cheddar cheese with the blue cheese.
Tried red onion Red Onion

Another experiment

Added blue cheese crumbles to the sautéing yellow and red onions, just near done.

Then...

  1. Added chopped salad greens, about handful.
  2. Waited until leaves were slightly wilted.
  3. Added 2 beaten eggs to the mixture
  4. Flipped and added shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
  5. Folded over and topped with more shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
Then I found this Bacon Blue Brunch on Rantings of an Amateur Chef
This omelet has bacon, apple and blue cheese. I always had the idea of trying apples in my omelet. So I tried it, I julienned apples and sliced onions sautéed together until limp. It was good, it was like I added sweet yellow onions.
