Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 4 Bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven broiler on high.
Step 2
Bring a small pot of water to a boil and blanch the broccoli florets for 2-3 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the blanched broccoli, salt, and pepper, and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until well combined. Pour the egg mixture into the same skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until soft scrambled. Remove from heat.
Step 5
Stir the shredded cheddar cheese into the scrambled eggs until melted and evenly incorporated.
Step 6
Spread butter on one side of each bread slice and place them on a baking sheet, butter-side down.
Step 7
Top each slice of bread with a generous scoop of the scrambled egg and cheese mixture, followed by the sautéed broccoli.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is crispy and the toppings are slightly golden.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your Broccoli and Cheese Breakfast Melts!
