Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 medium ripe tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 ounce feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by chopping the tomatoes into small, bite-size pieces. If desired, you can remove the seeds for a less watery consistency.
Step 2
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Season with sea salt and ground black pepper.
Step 3
In a non-stick skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat.
Step 4
Once the oil is hot, add the chopped tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to soften.
Step 5
Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the tomatoes. Let them sit for a few seconds without stirring, then use a spatula to pull the cooked outer edges towards the center of the pan. Continue this process, allowing the eggs to form soft curds.
Step 6
When the eggs are mostly set but still a little runny, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the eggs.
Step 7
Add the fresh parsley and basil, then gently fold everything together until the eggs are cooked through, but still creamy. This should take about 1-2 more minutes.
Step 8
Remove from heat promptly, as eggs will continue to cook in the residual heat of the pan.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean diet-inspired scrambled eggs.
