Smokey Peppers and Poached Eggs

Serves: 1 x 2 block meal

Ingredients
2 eggs (2 blocks protein)
1 1/4 cups / approx 170g red & yellow peppers, thinly sliced (1 block carb)
1/2 cup / approx 65g red onion, thinly sliced (1 block carb)
2/3 Tsp olive oil (2 blocks fat)
1 garlic clove
Smoked paprika
Black pepper
Flat leaf parsley

1) Warm olive oil and onion over low heat, stirring occasionally until onion is almost tender.

2) Add peppers and garlic until peppers have softened. Stir in good pinch of smoked paprika.

3) Meanwhile poach eggs.

4) To serve, pile up peppers and place eggs on top. Add chopped parsley and season with black pepper.

TIP: For really soft peppers and onions either add a little more olive oil if not strictly measuring fat intake or add splash of water and cover when cooking, which will steam veg nicely.
