delicious spring scrambled eggs


Hello, friends! Here's Jamison's recipe for a delicious and richly flavorful version of shirred eggs. A pal shared some ultra fresh organic eggs with a deep golden color and wonderful depth of flavor that inspired this special treatment...

Shirred Eggs with Scallion and Radicchio
serves 2

5 organic eggs
1/4 head radicchio, shredded fine
5 scallions, green and white sections, sliced thin
1/8 cup each Asiago and Havarti (Dill flavor, if you can find) cheese, grated
1 generous tablespoon of Greek Yogurt
ground chipotle pepper


 
Crack eggs in a bowl and combine with Greek yogurt, salt and fresh ground pepper. Melt a slice of butter in pan, saute radicchio and scallion until tender, then add eggs/cheese and cook over very low heat, adding pinches of cheese and about 4 shakes chipotle pepper. Cook until tenderly done with a soft texture. Enjoy!

Oh Jenn! The organic eggs ended up in a really delicious and pretty meal! I must try to mix Greek yogurt to the eggs next time, might be divine :9.
Such a fabulous composition in your last picture... I am still dreaming about Spring and flowers ;)
Have a sweet Sunday friend!

Hello Lil! The Greek yogurt really adds an element of lush rich body to the eggs, so yummy. So glad you stopped by and enjoyed this little post :)

Your breakfasts with Jamison are an inspiration. It is usually coffee and maybe oatmeal for me. It is more often we have breakfast for dinner and early in the morning.

I must try adding greek yogurt, sounds so tangy and rich.

Happy week Jenn! (Packing yet?)

Hi Robin! Weekend breakfasts can be so fun--there's a treat aspect to a leisurely morning when you can putter around in the kitchen and come up with new variations on old favorites! Interested to hear your thoughts on Greek yogurt addition!

Yep, we are starting to pack and gear up for the move! Have a fantastic Monday, friend...

Fantastic! Greek yogurt and dill havarti, this would go great with some lox or gravlax.

If there iss nothing written about the Buddha saying to make yourself a nice breakfast on the weekends, it was probably just lost to history.
