Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 0.25 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives or green onions, chopped
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper.
Using a whisk or fork, beat the mixture until the eggs are well combined and slightly frothy. The almond milk helps achieve a creamy texture.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the olive oil. Allow the oil to warm up for about 30 seconds.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit for a few seconds before gently stirring with a spatula.
Continue to gently stir the eggs, folding them over themselves, allowing them to cook slowly for about 5-7 minutes. Lower the heat if necessary to prevent browning.
Cook until the eggs are just set but still slightly runny for a creamy texture.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the scrambled eggs rest for a minute. They will continue to firm up slightly.
Serve immediately, garnished with chopped chives or green onions for a fresh finish.
