The Best Scrambled Eggs
Best scrambled eggs.
If you want a simple, different way to fix eggs without the extra calories; if you’d like eggs that are creamy without the calories, then try this recipe. I admit I was skeptical – until I tasted them. These are truly the best scrambled eggs, and I’m hooked.
Instead of a skillet, use a saucepan. You’ll need eggs, butter (preferably unsalted), plain Greek yogurt, and salt and pepper to taste. That’s all. Oh yes, you’ll need about five minutes or less to get these best scrambled egg job done.
If you don’t have unsalted butter, just use less salt in the seasoning. One of the keys to seasoning these eggs is to add the seasonings at the end, so that’s why the recipe calls for unsalted butter.
A little extra time
This recipe does require a little more time. You stir the eggs as they cook for about 90 seconds. Then remove from heat and let them rest. Repeat the process several times until the eggs are done.
These eggs have a fluffy, light texture that you will enjoy. Light and airy, they are a great start to your day. Remember to fold in the Greek yogurt after the eggs are finished. Season them according to your taste.
When you add some fruit on the side, you’ll have a complete meal. Not only does it add some color, it also adds texture, flavor, and nutrition.
One morning I fixed these eggs for guests. As they prepared to leave the house, she asked me how I fixed those eggs. “They are the best I’ve ever had,” she remarked.
While they take a little more time, they are worth the effort (when you have the time).
