CHEF JOHN'S SUMMER SCRAMBLED EGGS



Chef John's Summer Scrambled Eggs image

Cooking isn't about always doing the right thing, and this summer scramble is a perfect example. Adding juicy, sweet cherry tomatoes to a scramble tastes great, but it's not a common practice since having a pool of liquid under your eggs is considered bad form. I don't care; I have toast. Try to find a goat milk feta cheese for this; it's awesome!

PERFECT HAM AND CHEESE SCRAMBLED EGGS



Perfect Ham and Cheese Scrambled Eggs image

I hate scrambled eggs. Except, that is, when I make them. These, I like. If you're looking for firm eggs, go somewhere else; these are both moist and gooey, while not undercooked (I have a horror of salmonella). Simply double to serve 3 to 4 (or two people with bigger appetites).

Time 5m

Yield 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (I use Lea & Perrins, of course)
2 tablespoons nonfat milk or 2 tablespoons low-fat milk
salt and pepper
1 slice cooked ham, chopped into bite-size pieces
1/4-1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese or 1/4-1/3 cup Mexican blend cheese
nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Spray non-stick frying pan with cooking spray.
  • Heat up over medium to medium-high heat.
  • (Use medium on an electric stove, medium-high on a gas.) While pan is heating, whisk together eggs, Worcestershire sauce, milk, salt, and pepper with a fork, just until blended.
  • Pour into pan and stir continually for about 2 to 3 minutes, until eggs are cooked.
  • Because of the milk, they will remain moist, but they should not be runny or sticky.
  • Turn off heat, but leave pan on burner.
  • Add ham and cheese.
  • Stir until everything is mixed, ham is heated, and cheese is melted.
  • Yum!

CREAMY CHEESY SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH BASIL



Creamy Cheesy Scrambled Eggs with Basil image

Sour cream makes these eggs rich and creamy and the basil adds a little kick of flavor. Sometimes I use pepperjack cheese and a little garlic and onion (powdered or fresh) for extra flavor.
