Veggie Breakfast Scramble

Okay, I admit. I am terrible when it comes to eating breakfast in the morning, unless it is the weekend. Or, if my awesome guy makes it for me. That's one of the reasons I love this recipe so much. Whip up a large batch on Sunday, and there are leftovers in the fridge to reheat during the busy work week. Don't you just love simple food prepping?

This recipe is so simple and yummy! You can use any fresh veggies, and/or meats (if you're so inclined) that you like. I often cook this recipe to use up veggies before stocking up again. The ingredients for this are simply what I had in the fridge at the time. You could also include: broccoli, kale, mushrooms, etc. Feel free to get creative!

I have made variations of this dish for guests many times, and it is always a hit.

Let's get to work. First, sauté your veggies in red palm oil until soft. (See instructions in the recipe below for specifics.)

Next, add in the egg mixture, and scramble away. When the eggs are nearly ready, add in the grated cheese and cooked meat, if using.

Finally, enjoy this creation. It is definitely Russ approved. In fact, he often asks, "When are you making those eggs again?" He loves to make a breakfast sandwhich out of his!
