Ingredients

  • 2-3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 tablespoons fresh salsa
  • ½ avocado cut into chunks (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat a cast iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over low-medium heat.
  • Add the eggs to a medium-sized bowl and whisk to break the yolks.
    Season with salt and pepper to your taste, and whisk until the eggs are fluffy.
  • Add the butter to the preheated skillet and swirl to coat.
  • Pour in the eggs and allow them to spread in an even layer. Cook for 20-30 seconds, then begin by scraping around the edges of the pan with a silicone spatula.
  • Slide the silicone spatula through the eggs, creating curds, until the eggs are cooked through; about 1-2 minutes total.
  • Transfer the scrambled eggs to a bowl and top with shredded cheddar cheese, salsa, cubed avocado, and the toppings of your choice.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Dairy free: Use avocado oil or coconut oil in place of the butter in this recipe.
With ham, bacon, or sausage: Add in cooked, chopped meat just before adding the eggs. Saute until warmed through, then pour in the eggs and scramble.
With peppers and onions: Add finely diced peppers and onions to a skillet along with some butter and cooking until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Then pour in the eggs and scramble them with the peppers and onions.
Additional topping suggestions: Cotija cheese, queso fresco, hot sauce, sour cream, fried potatoes, crispy tortilla strips, salsa verde, enchilada sauce, crema, lime wedges, guacamole, corn tortilla chips, chopped fresh cilantro, etc.
