Herb Scrambled Eggs
Since I was a kid, I could always eat eggs anytime of day. They are super versatile, easy to work with, and make an easy meal in less than 10 minutes. These herb scrambled eggs are made with ingredients you likely already have in your pantry! They are perfectly light, fluffy and loaded with flavor thanks to all of the fresh herbs! I do want to point out that my method for scrambling eggs is a little different than most. Instead of the low and slow rule, I cook at high heat and with fast cooking. I got the idea from Gordon Ramsey and have been making our eggs this way ever since!
Ingredients
Eggs: Eggs make for such a healthy breakfast! Filled with healthy nutrients that will help curb your mid-morning cravings, eggs are the cornerstone of any great breakfast. Butter: I use unsalted butter in this recipe because I really like to control how much salt is going into the dish. Fun fact: Salted butter is best for using on finished foods like spreading on bread or adding to pasta, but unsalted butter is great for cooking because you can avoid too much added salt! Parsley: The quintessential garnish, chopped parsley finishes off the dish with a fresh, colorful touch. Thyme: Fresh thyme is an absolute must in this herb scrambled eggs recipe. Not only does it smell amazing, but it really enhances the overall flavor of the dish. Oregano: Did you know that oregano actually has antioxidant and antiviral properties? It tastes great and helps keep you healthy — two reasons to add to your herb mix! Chives: I prefer using chives in this scrambled eggs recipe instead of onions because they are much less pungent and mix in much better with the herbs. You can add the chives in while cooking or garnish the dish before serving. Salt and Pepper: To taste!

Add some veggies! Keep this recipe vegetarian-friendly and load up with your favorite vegetables for a healthy, filling breakfast.

Spice up your scrambled eggs by adding sliced avocados, your favorite salsa, and a little bit of jalapeño — you’ll definitely get the kick you need to start your day off right! Meat, anyone? You really can’t go wrong with mixing diced ham, strips of bacon, or chunks of your favorite sausage into your herb scrambled eggs. Everything is better with cheese! Cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan — take your pick. Whether you sprinkle a little on top of your eggs or mix it in while cooking, cheese will only make your eggs better.
