Ingredients
  

For the Scramble
  • 4-6 units Eggs (Substitute with scrambled tofu or chickpea flour for a vegan option.) Use more eggs for larger servings.
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes (Fresh or canned tomatoes can be used interchangeably.) Halve fresh tomatoes for quicker cooking.
  • 1 cup Bell Peppers (Any color works—red, yellow, or green.) Chop into small pieces for even cooking.
  • 1/2 cup Red Onion (Can be substituted with shallots for a milder taste.) Chop finely for quicker softening.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Essential for seasoning; adjust to personal taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Essential for seasoning; adjust to personal taste.
  • 1-2 tablespoons Olive Oil Can be replaced with avocado oil for higher smoke point.
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese (Use dairy-free cheese for a vegan version.) Add at the end for creaminess.
  • 1/4 cup Parsley or Basil Substitute with any fresh herb based on preference or availability.
  • 1 tablespoon Hot Sauce or Lemon Juice Optional for a flavor kick.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Halve the cherry tomatoes and chop bell peppers and red onion into small, even pieces.
Cooking
  1. Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  2. Sauté the red onion and bell peppers until the onion is translucent and the peppers soften.
  3. Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook until they soften and release their juices.
  4. Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper.
  5. Add the eggs (or vegan alternative) and scramble gently until just set and glossy.
  6. Turn off the heat and sprinkle over feta and fresh herbs, folding gently.
  7. Taste and add hot sauce or lemon juice for extra brightness, if desired.

Notes

Cool any leftovers promptly and store in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat gently on low heat to avoid drying out. Prepping vegetables ahead can save time during the week.
