Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons low sodium milk
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon dried thyme
- 4 pieces whole grain bread slices
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the low sodium milk, black pepper, dried oregano, and dried thyme. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt and coat the skillet evenly.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit without stirring for about 20 seconds until it begins to set around the edges.
Using a spatula, gently pull the eggs across the pan to form soft curds. Continue to cook, slowly folding the eggs, until they are softly set and slightly runny in places. Remove the pan from heat as the eggs will continue to cook from the residual heat.
While the eggs are cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices to your desired level of crispiness.
Place two slices of toasted bread on each plate and top with the scrambled eggs.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
