Microwave Country Breakfast (for dinner)

When it's hot outside and you do not want to turn on that oven, here's a yummy and easy dinner choice. (Oh, yeah, and it works for breakfast too!)

Ingredients:

2 medium baked potatoes (cook them in the microwave!)
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 cup cheddar cheese
1/2 cup jack cheese

Peel and slice cooled potatoes; set aside.
Combine eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Beat.
Melt butter in a 9" baking dish (use microwave).
Cook green pepper and onion in butter in microwave until tender (3-4 minutes).
Add eggs and potatoes.
Cook in microwave on medium power 5-12 minutes (depends on the microwave). Stop and stir twice.
Eggs will be set when it's finished.
Cover with shredded cheese. The cheese will melt on it own but could be melted in the microwave if necessary.


Enjoy!
