  • Cheese: Cheddar or pepper jack cheese are both great options for adding flavor and creaminess to the scramble.
  • Vegetables: Use fresh, in-season vegetables for the best flavor. Corn and tomatoes are a classic combination, but you can also add other vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or spinach.
  • Spices: Season the scramble with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. Chili powder, cumin, and paprika are all good options.
  • Cooking method: You can cook the scramble in a skillet or in the microwave. If you're cooking it in a skillet, be sure to use a non-stick skillet and cook the scramble over medium heat so that it doesn't burn.
