Ingredients
- 3 Tbs. olive oil
- 3 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 7-oz. jar roasted red peppers, drained and thinly sliced
- 4 large eggs, beaten
Preparation
Preheat oven to 325F. Coat 9×5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
Heat olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes, and sauté 5 minutes, or until they begin to brown. Add onion, and cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Remove from heat, and stir in red pepper slices. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and transfer to loaf pan.
Pour eggs evenly over potato mixture.
Set loaf pan in large roasting pan, and place on middle rack of oven. Pour hot water into roasting pan until it reaches halfway up loaf pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until eggs are set. Slice and serve immediately, or let sit 20 minutes, then unmold and slice.
