Ingredients:
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 onions, finely sliced

• 1 slice sourdough bread, cubed
• 4 eggs
• 2 tbsp skimmed milk

Instructions:
1. Grease the inside of a small slow cooker. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and cook the sliced onions, red pepper, and chilli over medium heat until just softened.
