Ingredients
- 3 Eggs
- 1/2 Avocado
- 1 oz Cream Cheese
- 1 tsp Everything Bagel Seasoning
- 1 tbsp Butter
- to taste Salt
- to taste Black Pepper
Preparation
First, prepare the avocado. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork. Set aside.
Cooking the Eggs
In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, crack the eggs into the skillet. Let them cook for a moment, then gently scramble them with a spatula.
Adding Cream Cheese
Add the cream cheese to the eggs while they are still slightly wet. Stir it in until it is melted and evenly distributed, creating a creamy texture.
Incorporating Avocado
Gently fold in the mashed avocado into the egg mixture. Be careful not to overmix; you want to maintain some of the avocado chunks for texture.
Seasoning
Season the egg scramble with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well to combine.
Serving
Transfer the creamy keto avocado egg scramble to a plate. Sprinkle generously with Everything Bagel seasoning.
