Smoked Salmon Scrambled Eggs (Cheat!)

Submitted by endeavour

"I love smoked salmon and egg dishes (HELLOO smoked salmon benedict!) but unfortunately being in university on a student's budget limits a foodie. I had some smoked salmon flavoured cream cheese in the fridge (great for dipping chips btw) which I tried mixing into scramblies and it was just SO GOOD! the measurement of butter and chives/green onion is just an approximation, add as you like!"

 

• Ready In: 6mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter (approx. use just a knob of butter)
• 3 eggs
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons smoked salmon flavour cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped chives (I usually use green onion)
• 1 slice toasted bread (your choice, i like baguettes or any other crusty loaf)

directions

1. Roughly beat together eggs and water. (Do not add salt and pepper at this point).
2. Melt butter over low-med heat until it begins to foam.
3. Add eggs to pan and using wooden spoon or spatula gently pull eggs towards middle of the pan, stir constantly.
4. As the eggs begin to look creamy, mix in the cream cheese, distributing evenly.
5. Mix the chives into the eggs or sprinkle over the eggs.
6. Salt and Pepper to taste.
7. Serve eggs over toast (I like to drizzle some olive oil on my toast beforehand).
