Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pan to medium-high heat. Add the chopped peppers and cook them down for 5 minutes to soften.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Pour in the scrambled eggs along with your cheeses. Sprinkle with garlic powder (if using), salt and pepper to taste. Add spicy chili flakes if you'd like.
- Cook until the eggs mostly set, then stir them up in the pan with the peppers to get everything nicely mixed and incorporated.
- Serve onto the warmed buns with a few sprinkles of chili flakes. Top with hot sauce and giardiniera, if desired, or just hot sauce! Enjoy!
