Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 4 tablespoons cream cheese
• 1 piece green bell pepper, diced
• 0.5 piece onion, diced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.5 cups shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. Add milk (or heavy cream), salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk well until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the diced onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant.

Step 3

Remove the cooked vegetables from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.

Step 4

Lower the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Let it melt and coat the pan.

Step 5

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds until the edges just begin to set.

Step 6

Using a rubber spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges to the center, allowing the uncooked liquid to flow to the edges. Continue this process gently to form soft curds.

Step 7

When the eggs are about halfway cooked but still loose, stir in the sautéed vegetables, cream cheese, and shredded provolone (or mozzarella) cheese.

Step 8

Continue gently folding the mixture until the eggs are fully set but still moist and creamy. Avoid overcooking as this can lead to dry eggs.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat and give the scrambled eggs one final gentle stir.

Step 10

Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your flavorful and creamy Philly Scrambled Eggs!
