I have to say that after butter, I use more eggs than any other ingredient. At least I can get fresh and delicious eggs in addition to the regular store bought ones. If you have never eaten freshly laid eggs, then you are truly missing out on some wonderful tasting food. Even the color of the eggs is better than regular store bought eggs. I highly recommend to find someone who has chickens and invest in their product.
So yesterday morning after a day on the powder filled slopes I was craving some decent protein for breakfast. I was also craving green things. My boyfriend always gives me a hard time for describing things as tasting green, but I really think that is the best description for some green things (like spinach or kale). However, this morning I opened up the refrigerator and pulled out the herbs I had been hiding away in there which included tarragon and chives. I chopped up the red pepper I had leftover from something else while my boyfriend beat the eggs. With the olive oil heating in the pan, we soon had everything ready for a pleasing looking and delicious breakfast.
Basically the recipe is (for 2 servings):
4 eggs, beaten with some milk (1/2 cup maybe)
Olive oil
1/2 red pepper, diced
Shredded cheese
Chives, chopped
Tarragon, Chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Heat the pan with a few tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot add the beaten eggs and then wait for a minute to cook. Add the red pepper, chives and tarragon. Add salt and pepper. Turn the eggs so they cook throughout (though not quite completely or they will loose their creamy texture). Just before cooking throughout add the shredded cheese. Serve and consume immediately.
