Recipe: Scrambled Eggs in an Onion Ring

I saw a photo on Pinterest of sunnyside up eggs prepared in bell pepper slices. They looked delicious. I decided to try making a similar dish using red onion slices with scrambled eggs inside.

Total Time: 10 minutes

Yield: 1

Ingredients:

4 rings of red onion approximately 3/4 inch thick
2 eggs, scrambled
cooking spray
dab of butter, optional
salt and pepper to taste
sprinkle of Tony Chachere's Original Creole Seasoning, optional

Steps:

Slice onion, I made these a bit too thin. 3/4 inch would be best.
Scramble two eggs in a bowl, add salt and pepper to taste.

Spray a skillet with a bit of cooking oil spray. You may add a dab of butter if you like, for flavor.
Cook the onion slices lightly on both sides until them begin to soften just a bit.

Pour egg into the onion rings. Keep the egg from overfilling the rings. You may sprinkle some Tony's or other seasoning on now.

Cook, on low to medium heat until the eggs begin to set. If you don't like your eggs brown, don't over cook on the down side. Flip them over and finish cooking.

Enjoy with toast, cottage fries, fresh fruit, or a salad for a quick breakfast or light lunch.
