Veggie Skillet Eggs

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 5 minutes
Total time: 10 minutes
Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 6 medium or large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano or basil
  • 1/3 cup shredded cheese (1 1/2 ounces)
  • 2 teaspoons oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped (about 2/3 cup)
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped (or 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 2 cups fresh, canned or frozen mixed vegetables (green beans, zucchini, peas, corn, broccoli, mushrooms)
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced

Directions

  1. Beat eggs with pepper, oregano or basil, and cheese in a medium bowl.
  2. Heat oil in a medium skillet. Add onions, garlic, and other vegetables and cook on medium (300 °F in an electric skillet) until soft.
  3. Pour egg mixture over vegetables. With knife or spatula, lift outer edges of eggs so egg mixture flows to the bottom of the pan.

  6. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.
