Veggie-loaded scrambled eggs FAQ:

You can substitute olive oil with butter, avocado oil, or coconut oil for sautéing the vegetables. Each will add a different flavor to the dish.

How should I store leftover scrambled eggs?

Store leftover scrambled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a microwave or on the stovetop.
