Breakfast for dinner.

My family will request this every so often. It's not a frequent request, only because I don't make it that often, so it goes overlooked. When I do make it, I usually make eggs and pancakes, and set up a topping bar. I'm not a fan of too much sugar at night, so I limit the sugary toppings like chocolate chips, and whipped topping. I opt more for berries to top our pancakes. I decided not to do pancakes for tonight's dinner. Instead I made an egg dish that I used to only make 2 times a year; Christmas and Father's day. I got the recipe years ago while watching PBS during a fund raiser. There was a cooking show, and they made this dish. I went to the website, and copied it. I've been making it ever since. I do alter it slightly from time to time, but I love it the way it is. I will serve it with tortillas on the side.

We had Junior high orientation/step up night, so dinner was at the table, but slightly rushed. Still very delicious.

Prep time: 35 Minutes
Total time: 35 Minutes

Yield: Serves 4

Course: Breakfast and Brunch

Ingredients

• 4 slices bacon (about 4 ounces) cut ½ inch thick crosswise
• 4 garlic cloves chopped
• 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped chipotle chiles in adobo
• 2 cans (28 ounces each) whole peeled tomatoes in juice
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
• 8 large eggs
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
• Tortilla chips for serving (optional)

Directions

1. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
2. Add garlic and chiles to rendered fat in skillet; cook, stirring, until garlic is just golden, 30 to 60 seconds. Add tomatoes and juice; simmer over medium heat, breaking up tomatoes with a spoon and stirring occasionally, until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Reduce heat to low. One at a time, crack eggs into a small bowl or cup, and slide onto sauce in skillet, spacing so that all eggs will fit. Cover; cook very gently until egg whites are just opaque (yolks should still be soft), 6 to 9 minutes.
4. Spoon into four serving bowls; sprinkle with feta and bacon. Serve with tortilla chips, if desired.
