Prep Time:10 mins

Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 60 grams cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 medium, diced bell pepper (any color)
  • 3 stalks, sliced green onions
  • 8 halved cherry tomatoes
  • 60 grams shredded cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon, chopped (optional) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and slightly foamy.

Step 2

Dice the bell pepper into small pieces, slice the green onions, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Set them aside.

Step 3

Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and set it aside as well.

Step 4

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and evenly coat the pan.

Step 5

Once the butter is melted, add the diced bell peppers to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 6

Add the cherry tomatoes and most of the sliced green onions (reserve a small amount for garnish). Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet over the sautéed vegetables. Let the eggs begin to set for a few seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, folding the eggs inward.

Step 8

Add the cream cheese cubes to the eggs, folding them gently into the mixture. Continue gently stirring and folding the eggs until they are soft and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Avoid overcooking.

Step 9

Once the eggs are just set, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and fold it into the eggs until melted and incorporated.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat immediately to prevent overcooking. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or black pepper if needed.

Step 11

Plate the scrambled eggs and garnish with the reserved green onions and chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
