These easy, fluffy scrambled eggs are perfect for brunch!

📝 Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 large green onion, thinly sliced (about 2 Tablespoons)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 ounce cream cheese (about 2 Tablespoons), divided into 1/2 teaspoon increments
  • 2 ounces smoked salmon (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Toasted crusty bread for serving (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Set aside a pinch or two of the greenest onion slices for topping your eggs later.
  2. 2In a small bowl, whisk eggs, remaining onion, salt and pepper together.
  3. 3Add half of your cream cheese pieces to the egg mixture, then gently flake the smoked salmon into the bowl. Stir gently to combine.
  4. 4Melt butter in a medium nonstick skillet over low heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring often, for 2-5 minutes, until eggs begin to set.
  5. 5When eggs are a little more than halfway done, scatter the remaining cream cheese pieces over the surface of your eggs and gently fold them in. Cook 1-2 more minutes or until eggs are cooked through. Eggs will look fluffy and very creamy as the cream cheese melts.
  6. 6Garnish eggs with remaining green onion slices and a few turns of fresh cracked black pepper. Serve immediately with a side of toasted bread (optional).
