Scrambled eggs with bacon and mushrooms is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast that combines the savory flavors of eggs, crispy bacon, and earthy mushrooms. This dish is perfect for a quick morning meal or a relaxed weekend brunch.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash and slice the mushrooms if they aren't pre-sliced.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk them together. Optional: Add a tablespoon of milk or cream for fluffier scrambled eggs.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the bacon strips to the skillet. Cook them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy and browned to your liking.
- Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Once cooled, cut or crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
- Leave a small amount of bacon grease in the skillet for added flavor (you can remove excess grease if necessary).
- In the same skillet with the bacon grease (add a bit of butter or oil if needed), add the sliced mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender and browned.
- Season the mushrooms with a pinch of salt and pepper while cooking.
- Lower the heat to medium-low.
- Add a little butter or oil to the skillet if it looks dry.
- Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet.
- Stir continuously with a spatula, gently pushing the eggs around the skillet as they begin to set. This will create soft, creamy curds.
- When the eggs are about halfway cooked, add the cooked mushrooms and bacon pieces to the skillet.
- Continue to cook the eggs, stirring until they are just set but still slightly runny. The residual heat will finish cooking them.
- Transfer the scrambled eggs with bacon and mushrooms to a plate.
- Serve immediately, garnished with a little extra pepper or herbs if desired.
- Enjoy your delicious, protein-packed breakfast!
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best flavor and texture.
- Cook the bacon until it's crispy, as this will add a nice crunch to the dish.
- Sauté the mushrooms in the bacon fat for extra flavor.
- Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper before cooking.
- Stir the eggs gently and continuously for creamy, soft scrambled eggs.
