Finally, a new breakfast recipe everyone can agree on, Keto Breakfast Pepper Rings!
My kids could eat the same thing every single morning! That's fine most mornings.
During the school year, it's all I can do to keep up with keto lunches, so I'm okay with letting them eat their sausage and cheese skillet, but I'm over it.
I usually make my breakfast once I see everyone off, but yesterday everyone cheered when they tasted what they were sure they would hate!

Can you imagine cooking for these kids? 😉
I love them, but they are not an easy crew to deal with in the morning!
I try to be sympathetic. Every other kid is eating sugary cereal, and they miss it; I get it.
They miss Pop-Tarts and Go-Gurts and all the other fun names for sugar.
They live in a country where a drug bombards them at every corner, and this drug is legal and deadly; it's not fair to any of us.
Keto Breakfast Pepper Rings Recipe:
Unfortunately, they are stuck with "that mom," who will cook three meals a day (or two and serves leftovers, which is even worse).
I'm okay with being "that mom, " and I hope you are too.
The kids were sure this recipe wouldn't pass the approval test because it contained the dreaded "wet egg."
This is a term that my children use for any egg they deem undercooked.
Also known as an egg that's not overcooked.
Thankfully they were wrong, and I won this debate much like... never mind, this is a food blog; we don't talk politics here. 🙂
I scared you for a minute there, didn't I?!
Keto Breakfast Pepper Rings Ingredients:
Red Bell Peppers
8 Eggs
1 lb Breakfast Sausage
4 tablespoon Shredded Parmesan Cheese
Coconut Oil
Salt & Pepper
Keto Breakfast Pepper Rings Directions:
In a small skillet, brown breakfast sausage and drain, then set aside.
Remove the tops from your red peppers and clean out the seeds. Cut peppers on a cutting board into 4 rings.
Heat 2 tablespoon of Coconut Oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Place peppers in the skillet and let them cook while the oil heats.
Once the oil starts to sizzle, crack one egg into each ring.
Be sure to pour the egg into the ring slowly so it has time to seal around the bottom of the ring.
Some of the eggs may leak out or overflow.
Salt and pepper each ring to taste, then add 2 tablespoon of sausage around the yolk of each ring.
Cook eggs to desired doneness.
I broke the yokes for the kids but still left them runny; I made my eggs over easy. The choice is yours.
Carefully remove eggs from the pan and top with ½ tablespoon of Parmesan cheese.
