Directions
1. To make the scrambled eggs: Crack the eggs into a cold 3-quart saucepan with a pinch of salt. Cut butter into small pieces and add to the pan. Set the pan over medium-low heat and mix the eggs with a wooden spoon to break them up. Stir constantly, moving the pan off and on the heat so you can stir the eggs if they are cooking too quickly in one spot. Remove the eggs off the heat when they still look shinny, but not runny. Divide the scrambled eggs into plates.
2. In a bowl, combine sliced avocado and tomatoes. Drizzle with lime juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top scrambled eggs with avocado and tomatoes and add a few grinds of black pepper if necessary. Serve the scrambled eggs immediately. Enjoy! ❤️
Tips for the scrambled eggs recipe
- The key is to cook the eggs gently with butter so they don’t overcook. You can also use a double boiler to cook the scrambled eggs – the indirect heat is perfect to get nice fluffy scrambled eggs. For extra fluffiness, add a little milk to the eggs and butter.
- Add any veggies, fruit, or dairy to your side salad to serve with the scrambled eggs: sweet corn, strawberries, fresh mozzarella or burrata, fresh fava beans, edamame, etc…
- If you like a kick of spice to your scrambled eggs, add a pinch of cayenne or crushed red chili flakes.
How long to keep scrambled eggs after cooking?
You should eat scrambled eggs immediately after cooking, or at least the same day. However, you can keep your scrambled eggs in the refrigerator for 3 days. To reheat your refrigerated scrambled eggs, melt some butter in a pan over medium-low heat. Add the eggs and reheat gently, pressing the eggs and breaking them down with a wooden spatula until reheated. The texture isn’t quite the same as freshly made scrambled eggs, but it’s still delicious!
