Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 cup ham
- 1 piece bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 piece onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a large bowl, add the milk, and whisk together until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper, and set aside.
In a large non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the onion is translucent.
Add the ham to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ham is heated through.
Push the ham and vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the cleared space and let it melt.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, gently stirring with a spatula to allow the eggs to cook evenly. Stir the egg mixture into the ham and vegetables.
Continue to cook, gently stirring the eggs frequently until small curds form and the eggs are just set but still creamy, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle in the cheddar cheese and fold it into the egg mixture until it is well distributed and starting to melt.
Remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with sliced green onions for an added touch of flavor and color.
