Sometimes it's really worth taking an extra ten minutes to start your day off right with a hot breakfast. Sure, you could toast a pop tart or pour a bowl of cereal in less time, but a couple of scrambled eggs don't require much more effort. Usually, I scramble them up and just add a little cheddar, but yesterday I decided to mix it up a bit. I noticed that I had three little magical ingredients that were made for each other: tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil. On a side note, I could put fresh basil on anything. It smells heavenly and is great to have on hand. one of these days I'm going to buy a basil plant and start growing my own. Anyway, I decided to be adventurous and add these lovely Italian flavors to my eggs.
INGREDIENTS:
2 eggs
a handful of cherry tomatoes, cut in half
a handful of shredded mozzarella cheese
about 3 leaves of fresh basil, torn into little pieces
salt and pepper
DIRECTIONS:
Okay, I know most of you don't really need instructions for making scrambled eggs, at least I hope not. Just melt a little butter in your pan, pour in the eggs, add salt and pepper, and when they're pretty much done, add all the goodies.
Enjoy! We'll get back to the sweet stuff tomorrow!
