Easier to make than an omelet and requires less cleanup than normal scrambled eggs. I strongly recommend that you try it with pastured eggs. They taste much better than normal organic eggs.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add butter and allow it to melt.
  2. In a bowl, crack open your eggs, add the cream and salt (I use 5 dashes from my shaker). With a fork beat the eggs until the whites and yolks are mixed together.
  3. Dump the egg mixture into the middle of your melted butter.
  4. Sprinkle on the cheese over the top of the eggs.
  5. Allow the eggs to set and then using a spatula flip each edge back over itself, so that the egg is folder into a packet.
  6. When it looks like you can flip without making a mess, flip the entire thing over.
  7. Once flipped, it will puff up a bit, when you can poke the top and not have yolks run out it's done!

This is my special version of scrambled eggs that end up looking like an omelet. Since you aren't stirring the eggs in the pan, the egg doesn't stick to the pan and you can clean it with just a paper towel.

Variations

Lower Fat

If you skip the cream, it won't be as fluffy but still comes out tasting great. You can usually get away with 1/2 tbsp of butter or use low-fat cheese.
