Sunday Morning Steak and Eggs

One of my favorite breakfast, as you know, is steak and eggs. You don't have to spend a lot of money to have a nice leisurely weekend meal.

Here's the steak portion of our meal.  These Eye of Round Steaks weighed in at about 1 1/2 lbs. and were less than $5.

Yes, they're super thin and cook FAST!  In fact, they were ready in the same time it took me to scramble the eggs. I seasoned the steak with Canadian Steak Seasoning and the eggs were spiced up with the additional of pepper jack cheese.  This was definitely a "thumbs up" breakfast!

For the steak:

1 1/2 - 2 lbs. eye of round steak

1 - 2 T. Canadian Steak Seasoning

1 T. vegetable oil

Sprinkle steak with seasoning. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add oil and when it shimmers, carefully add steak. Lower heat slightly. Let steak cook 1 - 2 minutes, flip with tongs and cook 1 - 2 minutes more. Remove from heat while you cook eggs.

For the eggs:

4 eggs, lightly beaten

salt and pepper to taste

1 T. butter

1/4 cup shredded pepper jack cheese

1 T. half-and-half

In a medium skillet, over medium-low heat, add butter. Add salt and pepper to beaten eggs. Pour eggs into the skillet and lower heat to low. Using a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon, slowly and gently stir eggs as they cook. When they are half-way cooked, add shredded cheese and continue gently stirring. When cheese is melted, add half-and-half and stir to combine. Remove from heat.

Serve with hash browns and biscuits!
