I love this recipe because it is incredibly fast to prepare, especially on busy mornings when I do not have much time. In just a few minutes, I can make a comforting and filling breakfast.
I also enjoy how versatile scrambled eggs can be. I can add tomatoes, cheese, chives, or other vegetables depending on what I have at home.
Ingredients
(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
4 eggs 1 pinch salt 1 pinch black pepper 1 tablespoon butter or oil 1 handful fresh chives 1 diced tomato, optional Grated cheese, optional
Directions
I crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with the salt and pepper.
I heat the butter or oil in a skillet over low to medium heat.
I pour the eggs into the skillet and gently stir them with a spatula while they cook.
Once the eggs start becoming soft and creamy, I add the tomatoes or cheese if I want extra flavor.
I continue stirring gently until the eggs are fluffy and slightly creamy.
Before serving, I sprinkle fresh chives on top for extra freshness and flavor.
I like adding vegetables such as spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers for a more filling breakfast.
For extra flavor, I sometimes add soy sauce, parsley, basil, or shredded cheese.
Storage/Reheating
I prefer eating scrambled eggs immediately while they are soft and fresh.
If I have leftovers, I store them in the refrigerator for up to 1 day and reheat them gently in a skillet over low heat.
