For a simple variation on the traditional scrambled eggs, consider making scrambled eggs with cheese. By adding the cheese of your choosing to scrambled eggs, you can make scrambled eggs exciting again. Follow these steps to make scrambled eggs with cheese for your next breakfast.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Eggs
  • Milk
  • Food processor or blender
  • Butter or margarine
  • Non-stick frying pan
  • Spatula safe for non-stick cookware (such as silicone)
  • Shredded cheese (your choice)
  1. Step 1

    Crack two eggs per person into a medium sized bowl. Be sure to remove any eggshell that may have fallen into the bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Pour a splash of milk or cream into the eggs from Step 1. The milk helps keep the eggs light and fluffy. You can use whole milk, low-fat milk or skim milk in this recipe.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk the eggs and milk until they are blended. You can also use a food processor or blender to whip up extra fluffy eggs. When you use an electric appliance to blend the eggs, the mixer will incorporate air into the eggs, making them frothy.

  4. Step 4

    Place a medium sized non-stick frying pan on a stove burner, add a few tablespoons of butter or margarine and turn the heat to medium.

  5. Step 5

    Pour the egg mixture into the pan when the pan has warmed and the butter or margarine is bubbly.

  6. Step 6

    Cook the eggs over medium heat until you see the edges start to appear firm. At this point, stir the eggs with a silicone spatula to begin to scramble them.

  7. Step 7

    Allow the eggs to continue cooking, being sure to stir them frequently with the spatula.

  8. Step 8

    Lower the heat to medium low or low when the eggs appear almost cooked all the way through.

  9. Step 9

    Sprinkle some shredded cheese of your choosing into the pan containing the eggs. Stir well with the spatula to combine.

  10. Step 10

    Finish cooking until the cheese melts, and the scrambled eggs have cooked to your desired doneness.

  11. Step 11

    Remove the scrambled eggs with cheese from the pan and serve. Good accompaniments for scrambled eggs with cheese include bacon, sausage, hash browns or toast.

Tips & Warnings
  • Two eggs make one adult serving.
  • Get creative with your selection of shredded cheese. Processed cheese, Cheddar, American, Swiss and pepper cheese are good choices.
  • Be careful not to cook the eggs over heat that's too high. This will make the eggs tough and dry. Lower the heat if you notice that the eggs are cooking too quickly.
