Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 stalks green onion
- 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder
Instructions
Begin by washing and drying the red bell pepper. Cut it in half, remove the seeds and membranes, and then dice it into small cubes.
Clean the green onions and slice them thinly, setting them aside for later use.
In a medium-sized bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until the yolks and whites are thoroughly combined. Season the eggs with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then whisk again to blend the spices evenly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the diced red bell peppers. Sauté the peppers for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until they start to soften.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the red bell peppers. Let the mixture sit, undisturbed, for about 15 seconds to allow the eggs to begin setting.
Using a spatula, gently stir and fold the eggs, moving them across the pan to cook evenly. Continue cooking the eggs, stirring occasionally, until they are set to your desired consistency, around 3-4 minutes for soft and fluffy scrambled eggs.
Sprinkle the sliced green onions over the top and give the eggs a final gentle stir to incorporate the onions.
Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the scrambled eggs immediately while warm. Enjoy your nutritious, dairy-free breakfast!
