Doctored-Up Scrambled Eggs

Submitted by breezermom

"Scrambled Eggs with a little something extra! Don't overcook the eggs. Just draw a spatula over the mixture occasionally instead of stirring constantly. This will keep the eggs from becoming dry and crumbly."

 

• Ready In: 20mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 8 eggs, large, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tomatoes, large, peeled, seeded, and chopped
• 1 tablespoon green bell pepper, chopped
• 1 tablespoon parsley, fresh, chopped (if using dry, half the amount)
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
• 2 1⁄2 tablespoons butter
• 1⁄2 cup ham, cooked and chopped

directions

1. Combine everything but the butter and ham. Stir, and mix well; set aside.
2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ham, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
3. Add the egg mixture to the skillet. Cook, without stirring, until the egg mixture begins to set on the bottom. Draw a spatula across the bottom of the pan to form large curds. Continue cooking until the eggs are firm, but still moist (do not stir constantly).
4. Serve immediately.

This is an easy and flavorful egg dish and it's also a great way to sneak in other veggies that need to be used up. I used a yellow bell pepper (vs. green) and I added some sliced mushrooms to the mix. I had everything on hand and it was a fast yummy breakfast this morning. : )

We liked these eggs so much - added a little onion and a couple spinach leaves instead of parsley. I know, they're not the same, but they're both green and leafy. Made for a nice quick dish to eat while watching the Packers!! (green and gold eggs!) Didn't think to take a picture until they were almost gone.

We really enjoyed these delicious, flavorful eggs. I added a few extra tablespoons of milk to extend the recipe to feed a few more people. Also, I chopped up a couple of mushrooms and cooked them with the ham before adding the egg mixture. These eggs were a big hit with my guests. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. **Made for 2017 Football Pool**

A real nice breakfast earlier in the week. The combo of the green peppers, and tomato made for a real nice colorful, and very presentable dish. The ham was an extra bonus. Served with some English muffins and orange juice. Made for FYC Tag, Definitely recommended..

I scaled back for 2 serves and the only change I made was to use a red capsicum/bell pepper instead of green and the DM and I thoroughly enjoyed our delicious and filling breakfast with a piece of wholemeal/wholegrain toast, thank you breezermom, made for Everyday is a Holiday tag game.
