Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 cups red bell pepper
- 0.5 cups green bell pepper
- 0.25 cups white onion
- 1 piece jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 0.25 cups salsa
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. Add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Dice the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and white onion. Finely chop the jalapeño pepper after removing the seeds (optional, if less spice is desired).
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Add the diced red and green bell peppers, onion, and jalapeño to the skillet. Sauté the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened and fragrant.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Gently stir with a silicone or wooden spatula to begin scrambling the eggs.
As the eggs begin to set, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Continue gently stirring and folding the eggs until fully cooked but still soft and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the scrambled eggs with fresh cilantro and a drizzle of salsa.
Serve the Tex Mex scrambled eggs immediately with warm tortillas, toast, or as part of a breakfast burrito.
