Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, diced tomato
- 0.5 medium, diced green bell pepper
- 0.25 cup, crumbled feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon, chopped fresh oregano
- 1 teaspoon, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced tomato and green bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables slightly soften.
Reduce the heat to low. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Let it sit for a few seconds until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, lifting and folding them as they cook. Continue this process for 1-2 minutes or until the eggs are softly scrambled and just set.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the eggs and cook for an additional 30 seconds, allowing the cheese to warm slightly.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the scrambled eggs with fresh oregano and parsley.
Serve immediately with crusty bread or pita on the side for a complete meal.
