Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 large tomato
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Pour the whisked eggs into the heated pan and let them cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edges of the pan toward the center, creating soft folds.
When the eggs are about halfway cooked, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and diced tomato evenly over the surface.
Continue to gently fold and stir the eggs until they are fully cooked but still creamy. Be careful not to overcook.
Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the cheesy tomato eggs to plates. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
