- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup Grated cheddar cheese

Directions
Step 1
Start by selecting a large bell pepper and slice it horizontally to create two thick rings, about 1/2 inch each.
Step 2
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Step 3
Place the bell pepper rings in the skillet and crack one egg into the center of each ring.
Step 4
Season the eggs with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Step 5
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your desired level of doneness.
Step 6
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese over the eggs during the last minute of cooking. Cover again to allow the cheese to melt.
Step 7
Once cooked, carefully use a spatula to lift each Low Carb Egg in a Hole onto a plate.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Step 9
Enjoy your delicious and healthy low carb breakfast!
