Ingredients:
– 2 large yellow bell peppers, sliced
– 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 4 large eggs
– 1/4 cup milk
– 150 grams of crumbled feta cheese
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– A pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
– 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the bell peppers: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced yellow bell peppers and red onion. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. Mix the egg base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Stir in the crumbled feta cheese, chopped basil, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
4. Combine ingredients: Add the sautéed yellow bell pepper and onion mixture to the egg mixture. Stir to combine evenly.
5. Prepare for baking: Lightly grease a baking dish or casserole dish (approximately 8×8 inches or similar size). Pour the mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.
6. Bake: Sprinkle the top with grated Parmesan cheese. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs have set and the top is lightly golden.
7. Serve: Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes before serving. Cut into slices and serve warm.
