Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Egg Mixture
  • 2–3 large large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter (or olive oil for a dairy-free option)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
Toppings
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (sub Monterey Jack or pepper jack)
  • 3 tablespoons fresh salsa (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 avocado, cut into chunks (optional — sub with sliced tomato or a dollop of Greek yogurt)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over low–medium heat.
  2. Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Whisk until the whites and yolks are combined and slightly frothy. Season with salt and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Add butter to the skillet and swirl until it melts. If using oil, wait until it shimmers.
  2. Pour the eggs into the pan and let them sit undisturbed for 20–30 seconds.
  3. Gently scrape the edges toward the center with a silicone spatula to form soft curds, cooking for about 1–2 minutes.
Assembly
  1. Transfer the scrambled eggs to a bowl and sprinkle the shredded cheddar over the top to melt.
  2. Add fresh salsa and cubed avocado. Finish with optional hot sauce or herbs, then serve immediately.

Notes

For additional flavors, consider adding corn, black beans, or warmed rice. Pair with warm tortillas or fresh fruit on the side.
