ITALIAN PEPPERS AND EGG SANDWICHES

Italian Peppers and Egg Sandwiches image

These sandwiches are so good. I made them for a romantic breakfast in bed situation with very nice results but they would be just as good for lunch or a light dinner. The eggs are tender and creamy, the peppers and onions are slightly sweet and match well with the saltiness of the meat. And who doesn't love ciabatta? Fresh fruit is a nice accompaniment.

ITALIAN EGG SANDWICHES

i saw this on Everyday italian and have tweaked it to my taste a little. This is by all means to die for. I am a picky eater and would never have thought that eggs and tomato sauce would be good, but this is superb. Breakfast, lunch, brunch, midnight snack. My husband and i love this. The kids not so much, but that means more for us! Please try it and let me know what you think.

Heat pizza sauce in microwave, then spread on toasted bread.You may use more than 1 tbsp if you like it saucey. Place your egg on top of sauce and sprinkle liberally with freshly grated parmesan. You may use marina, spaghetti or plain tomato sauce, but i found i really prefer a good quality pizza sauce. Enjoy!
