I saw this on one of those television cooking shows and had to try it. Of course the first time was a learning experience, so after a few times they actually came out pretty good.
If you like bell peppers with your eggs, this is a great way to cook them. And they are fun for the whole family.

Sunny Side Up Circles
Ingredients
One (1) Bell Pepper (red, green, yellow, or orange)
One (1) Teaspoon Garlic Pepper
Two (2) Extra Large Eggs
One (1) Tablespoon Butter (or preferred cooking oil)
Two (2) Tablespoons Shredded Cheese (any preferred flavor)
Preparations
Slice pepper near the head making two large circles 1/2 inch thick. The flatter the slice, the better.
Place pepper circles in frying pan prepped with cooking oil. Cover and cook for 3 minutes per side on medium hot.
Uncover and crack each egg, placing one in each pepper circle. I gently push down on the circles for a few seconds to keep the eggs from squeezing out from the bottom of the pepper.
WARNING: The pepper circles will be hot. Do not hold down on them very long. The heat from the frying pan will cook the bottom of the egg quickly enough to keep it from running out.
Cover the pan and fry the eggs sunny side up for three minutes. Sprinkle one teaspoon of garlic pepper on each circle. Sprinkle one tablespoon of shredded cheese on each circle and cover. Cook for one minute and remove from heat.
You can also do this with scrambled eggs.
