Ingredients:

2 eggs
100g
1 mushroom
80g
1 tomato
120g
1/2 onion
54g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Wash the mushroom and tomato thoroughly.
- Dice the mushroom into small pieces.
- Chop the tomato into small cubes, removing the seeds if preferred.
- Finely chop the half onion.
2. Saute the Vegetables:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion to the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they become translucent.
- Add the diced mushroom to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and slightly browned.
- Add the chopped tomato to the skillet. Cook for 2 more minutes until the tomato softens.
3. Prepare the Eggs:
- In a small bowl, crack the two eggs and beat them lightly with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are well combined.
4. Cook the Eggs:
- Lower the heat to low-medium.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet.
- Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 10 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly set but still slightly runny. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
5. Season and Serve:
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
- Serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your veggie-loaded scrambled eggs as a nutritious and delicious breakfast or light meal!

Tips:

- Use fresh, organic vegetables for the best flavor and nutritional value.

- Feel free to add other vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or zucchini to customize the recipe to your liking.

- Season with salt, pepper, and herbs like parsley or chives to enhance the taste.

- Cook the veggies on a medium heat to retain their crunch and nutrients.

- If you prefer your eggs creamier, add a splash of milk or cream to the beaten eggs before cooking.

- Serve with a side of whole-grain toast for a complete and balanced breakfast.
