Heat 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl, whisk lightly, and pour into the heated skillet. Scramble them gently until just set. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the minced garlic. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the carrots, broccoli, red bell pepper, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet and mix gently with the vegetables.
Drizzle the mixture with low-sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos, and sprinkle with ground black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Optionally, add a small drizzle of sesame oil for additional flavor.
Serve hot as a standalone dish or pair with steamed brown rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
