Begin by preparing the salsa. Chop the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a medium-sized bowl.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Chop the fresh cilantro and add a quarter cup to the tomato and onion mixture.
Slice the jalapeño in half, remove the seeds and veins, and finely chop it. Add half of the jalapeño to the salsa mixture.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze its juice over the salsa. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and dice the flesh. Set aside for garnishing later.
In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with sea salt and black pepper until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the ghee, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, and gently stir with a spatula to create soft curds as they begin to set.
Continue to cook and stir the eggs until they reach your desired consistency, being careful not to overcook them.
Once done, transfer the scrambled eggs to serving plates.
Top the scrambled eggs with a generous spoonful of homemade salsa and diced avocado. Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30-friendly scrambled eggs with salsa.
