Italian Pepper & Egg Sandwiches

 Ingredients:

• 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 small onion, thinly sliced
• 1 large bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 4 large eggs
• 3 large egg whites
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 4 reduced-calorie hamburger rolls, toasted if desired

Makes 4 Servings (1 sandwich per serving)

1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper; cook, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds longer. Transfer vegetables to plate. 
2. Whisk together eggs, egg whites, salt and black pepper in a medium bowl. Pour into skillet and cook over medium heat until eggs begin to set, about 1 1/2 minutes, pushing eggs toward center of skillet to form large, soft curds. Return vegetables to skillet and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until eggs are just set, about 2 minutes longer. 
3. Place about 3/4 cup egg-vegetable mixture on bottom of each roll; cover with tops of rolls.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW Family Meals Cookbook. These sandwiches are flavorful, filling and delicious. The combination of eggs, egg whites and vegetables is quite delicious when it's done right. If you don't have hamburger rolls on hand, use whole wheat bread or whole wheat tortillas and the sandwiches will be just as delicious. I also highly recommend adding shredded Italian cheese such as Parmesan or Asiago for more flavor. You can enjoy these sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and you will be satisfied.
