Breakfast is my favorite. Usually I don't eat it at breakfast time, but lunch or dinner instead. This recipe is such an easy way to dress up scrambled eggs. I just love the whole tomato and basil flavor combo, so what better than to add it with eggs? It's even better this time of the year with all of the garden fresh tomatoes! They are favorite thing about summer! Enjoy!
2 servings
What you need:
2 tablespoons finely sliced onion
6 eggs
6 large fresh basil leaves, minced
10 grape tomatoes, quartered
2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese
salt and pepper, if desired
bacon grease or butter
Directions:
In a large frying pan, saute onions in bacon grease on medium heat for about 1 minute. Add eggs, basil, salt and pepper, cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring to scramble. Add tomatoes and cheese, stir and remove from heat when eggs cooked through.

ReplyDeleteThanks Bintu!! This was so delicious!
DeleteWhat a perfect breakfast Sheena! I love the flavor combination!
ReplyDeleteSheena, this is one of my absolute favorite ways to eat scrambled eggs. All of those flavors are so perfect together! I'll even make these flavors into a fritatta and slice it up and put it on bagels for a yummy breakfast sandwich! We do that when we are on the go! Love you picture!!
ReplyDeleteWhat time is breakfast? I'll be there!
ReplyDeleteI love this new flavorful spin on eggs with whole tomatoes and basil. I could eat this any time of the day!
ReplyDeleteI love to make a scramble like this when I don't have a dinner plan. They are so quick and easy to pull together. This one looks perfect!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good! Easy & perfect for a weekend brunch or for breakfast for dinner. :)
ReplyDeleteSigh, I commented but it got eaten ;) I am not a huge fan of eggs, but scrambled is one way I have no problem eating them, the way you prepared them sounds appetizing to me!
ReplyDeleteOh man, I just want to go cook these this second. Yum! I love basil on everything.
ReplyDeleteThese look so good, love the twist on plain scrambled eggs! I love scrambled eggs and make them so often, but I need to add a little more flavor in too next time!!! Thanks for the inspiration! ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to change up scrambled eggs. I'm not one to eat eggs, but I could totally see myself making this!
