Equipment

1 Non-stick skillet 10-inch recommended
1 Whisk For beating eggs
1 Mixing bowl To combine ingredients
1 Silicone spatula For gentle stirring
1 Cutting board For chopping ingredients
1 Knife To prep vegetables & proteins

Ingredients

1 tablespoon Milk or water Optional for fluffiness
¼ teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste
⅛ teaspoon Black pepper Freshly ground recommended
1 tablespoon Butter or olive oil For cooking
¼ cup Bell peppers Chopped
¼ cup Onions Diced
¼ cup Cooked bacon or ham Optional protein
¼ cup Shredded cheese Cheddar feta, or mozzarella
1 tablespoon Fresh herbs Chives, parsley, or dill

Instructions

Crack eggs into a bowl, add milk/water, and whisk until combined.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter or oil.
Cook protein (if using) and harder vegetables first, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low, pour in eggs, and let them sit for 30 seconds.
Gently stir eggs with a spatula, pulling from edges toward the center.
Tilt the pan to move uncooked egg around and continue stirring.
When eggs are slightly undercooked, add cheese and remove from heat.
Let eggs rest for a few seconds—the residual heat will finish cooking.
Season with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs before serving.
