Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 2 tablespoons Skim milk
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 spray Olive oil cooking spray
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of skim milk, 0.25 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Clean the red bell pepper and cut it into small, evenly sized dice.

Step 3

Spray a medium non-stick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and place it over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the diced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are tender but still vibrant in color.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the peppers.

Step 6

Allow the eggs to set slightly at the edges, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the cooked portions from the edge towards the center. Continue this process until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat. The eggs will continue to cook with residual heat and will firm up more upon standing.

Step 8

Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the scrambled eggs for garnish before serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
