Ingredients

  • inch One russet potato scrubbed well, and chopped into small ½ dice
  • ½ red pepper diced
  • ½ cup yellow onion diced
  • 8-10 olives chopped
  • ½ cup tomatoes chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped peppers
  • ½ cup shredded cheese
  • 8 eggs
  • ½ cup half and half

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
  • scrub the potato well, chop it into a small ½ inch dice. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of olives oil and 1 teaspoon grill seasoning (I used Lawry's). Spread onto a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, stirring once during cooking.
  • While the potatoes are cooking chop the red pepper & onion. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat.. Add the peppers and onion to a skillet. Sauté for about 6-7 minutes until they are softened. Remove from heat.
  • Chop the tomatoes and olives, add to the skillet.
  • After 20 minutes remove the potatoes from the oven and add them to the skillet. Mix everything together well.
  • Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the half & half, salt and pepper. Using a mixer, mix well for a minute on high speed.
  • Spray the muffin tin well with non-stick coating. Spoon a heaping tablespoon into each muffin, top with about a teaspoon of cheese.
  • Using a measuring cup (for ease of pouring) fill each muffin tin within ¼ inch of top with egg mixture. Do not overfill.
  • Place in preheat oven for 20 minutes.
