Mornings That Matter: How One Simple Scramble Became My Ritual


  • Author: Paul
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 2-3 servings 1x

Description

This quick and easy breakfast scramble combines fluffy eggs, savory chicken sausage, sweet carrot, and a hint of scallion for a nutritious morning boost. Perfect for busy weekdays or a cozy weekend brunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 chicken sausage, sliced
  • 4 tablespoons milk
  • Scallion, chopped (for garnish)
  • Olive oil (for sautéing)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until softened and slightly translucent.
  3. Stir in the grated carrot and sliced chicken sausage. Cook for another 3–4 minutes until the sausage is slightly browned and the carrot is tender.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth and fully combined.
  5. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently and continuously, until the eggs are just set and still fluffy.
  6. Remove from heat and top with chopped scallion.
  7. Serve immediately as-is, or with toast, avocado, or a side of fruit.

Notes

  • You can substitute the chicken sausage with turkey sausage, tofu, or omit it altogether for a vegetarian version.
  • Feel free to add spinach, bell peppers, or mushrooms to make it even more nutrient-rich.
  • For creamier eggs, add a splash of extra milk or a bit of shredded cheese at the end.
