Ingredients

  • 4 large Eggs
  • 1 cup Mushrooms
  • 2 large Egg whites
  • 2 tablespoons Milk
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Chives

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cleaning the mushrooms. If necessary, gently wipe them with a damp paper towel to remove any dirt. Slice them thinly and set aside.

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the egg whites for extra protein, along with the milk. Beat them together using a whisk until well combined. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is warm, add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet.

Step 4

Sauté the mushrooms until they are golden brown and their moisture has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture over the sautéed mushrooms in the skillet.

Step 6

Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for a few moments, then gently stir with a spatula. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are scrambled to your desired consistency.

Step 7

Once the eggs are cooked, remove them from the heat. Add chopped chives for a touch of color and flavor.

Step 8

Serve immediately, garnished with additional chives if desired. Enjoy your high-protein scrambled eggs with mushrooms!
