Directions

  1. Place oil or butter into a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Break eggs into a bowl, add cream or water, and beat together vigorously with whisk or fork. You want to see some bubbles form getting air into the mixture.
  3. When oil or butter is hot or melted, add onion and garlic if using. If not, add chopped vegetables. If fresh let cook till crispy-soft. If frozen or canned, just heat to warm through.
  4. Turn heat down to low and wait for a minute. Add herbs.
  5. Pour beaten eggs into the pan. When they start to cook, stir gently in a circular motion with a spatula or wooden spoon. Be sure to keep scraping from the bottom to avoid browning or burning.
  6. When eggs are done to your desired consistency, add cheese if you like and stir gently for a minute until melted. You can also top with cheese when using cast iron or oven-proof pan and put under the broiler for a minute to melt. This gives you a nice cheesy top. Of course, this will depend upon your personal low carb breakfast preferences.
  7. Enjoy!
