Ingredients
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Milk or Cream
  • 1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil or Butter
  • A few leaves Fresh Basil
  • Pinch Salt
  • Pinch Black Pepper

Prepare the Ingredients

Whisk the eggs with milk or cream, salt, and pepper. Halve or quarter the cherry tomatoes. Shred the mozzarella cheese and chop the fresh basil.

Cook the Tomatoes

Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.

Scramble the Eggs

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist, about 3-4 minutes.

Add the Cheese

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the scrambled eggs. Cover the skillet for 1 minute, or until the cheese is melted and gooey.

Garnish and Serve

Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with chopped fresh basil. Serve immediately in a bowl.
