Recipe: Scrambled Eggs With Tomatoes, Herbs and Goat Cheese

This recipe makes an amazing breakfast or — let’s be honest — who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner? It’s incredibly versatile, protein-packed and easy on your digestive system. And it’s always a hit with kids! (Best when tomatoes are fresh and in season.)

Ingredients

8 large eggs
1⁄2 teaspoon sea salt
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons filtered water
1 tablespoon clarified butter or ghee
1 small tomato, roughly chopped
2 ounces soft goat cheese
1⁄4 cup fresh herbs (chives, thyme, parsley, dill, oregano), roughly chopped

Directions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper and water.
2. In a large nonstick skillet, warm the butter over medium heat until shimmering. Add the egg mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until the eggs form soft curds, about 3 minutes.
3. Fold in the tomatoes and remove the pan from the stove. Gently fold in the goat cheese and herbs, divide among four serving plates, and serve immediately.
