TRUFFLED SCRAMBLED EGGS

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
8 extra-large eggs
1/4 cup half-and-half or milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons truffle butter
3 slices brioche bread, toasted
Minced fresh chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place a medium (10-inch) saute pan over low heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt but not completely. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until the yolks and whites are just blended. Pour the mixture into the pan but don't mix it.
  • Allow the eggs to warm slowly over low heat without stirring them. This may take 3 to 5 minutes, so be patient! As soon as the eggs start to cook on the bottom, use a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom of the pan and fold the cooked eggs over the uncooked eggs. Once the eggs start to look a little custardy, stir them rapidly with the spatula until they are the texture of very soft custard. Remove the pan from the heat before the eggs are fully cooked, as they will continue to cook in the warm pan. Immediately, stir the truffle butter into the eggs. This will stop the cooking.
  • Cut the slices of toast in half diagonally and place them on 3 dinner plates. Spoon the scrambled eggs over the toasts and garnish with minced chives. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot.

GARDEN SCRAMBLE

How many times have I found myself the owner of a hodge-podge of vegetables....a little bit of this and a little bit of that? Usually I throw the bits and pieces into a soup, or end up making vegetable stock. But this time, I had guests, and had to feed them breakfast....so I ended up with this, served with Canadian Bacon and Toast! Feel free to change out the veggies, using what you have! **If you find yourself the proud owner of some leftover roasted veggies...just heat them up and use those and skip the first step...they work wonderfully!

Categories     Eggs

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 c egg substitute
1/8 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp marjoram leaves
1/4 c celery, finely chopped
1/4 c red bell pepper, finely chopped
2 Tbsp green pepper, finely chopped
1 Tbsp fat free chicken broth
1 c non-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
2 slice white or whole wheat bread, toasted
1 Tbsp chives, fresh/chopped

Steps:

  • 1. In a bowl, combine egg substitute, pepper and marjoram; set aside.
  • 2. In a nonstick skillet spray with cooking spray, over medium heat, cook celery, red pepper, green pepper and chives in chicken broth until tender.
  • 3. Add egg substitute and grated cheese to mixture.
  • 4. Cook stirring occasionally until set.
  • 5. Serve immediately with toast halves if desired or plain.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your garden scramble will be. Fresh vegetables will be more flavorful and nutritious, and fresh eggs will give your scramble a richer flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the eggs will not cook evenly and you will end up with a scrambled mess. Cook your eggs in batches if necessary.
  • Season your eggs: Don't forget to season your eggs with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to bring out the flavor of the eggs and the other ingredients in your scramble.
  • Add your vegetables last: Add your vegetables to the pan towards the end of cooking. This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked and mushy.
  • Don't overcook your eggs: Overcooked eggs are tough and rubbery. Cook your eggs until they are just set, but still slightly runny in the center.
  • Serve immediately: Garden scrambles are best served immediately. This will help to prevent the eggs from becoming overcooked and the vegetables from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Garden scrambles are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They are packed with fresh vegetables, protein, and flavor. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a garden scramble that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast or brunch, give a garden scramble a try.
