"The Better Pepper and Egg"

Comment "Egg" and I'll send you the recipe!

The Pepper and Egg sandwich is a staple for many Chicagoans that abstain from meat on Fridays during the lenten season.  It's a simple sandwich.  Sauteed green peppers and scrambled eggs on a crusty italian loaf. There's nothing wrong with that.  The original is fine, but I thought I could plus it up a bit.

My version starts with red, yellow, and orange sweet peppers sauteed in extra virgin olive and then folded into beautifully creamy scrambled eggs finished with grated parmesean.  A freshly baked seeded hoagie roll gets split and slathered with cherry pepper mayo, roasted long peppers for some heat, the scrambled eggs and sweet peppers, more parm, and of course I had to hit with some giardiniera.

The array of peppers is what makes this simple sandwich special.  You get some sweet and fruity notes, a spicy kick from the long hots and some much needed acid from the giardinera that really complements the creamy eggs.
