Basil Walnut Scrambled Eggs


Interesting new combo for eggs...  Although I had my suspicions this came out really good!  
Lots of protein from the eggs and walnuts.  If you like basil this is a good one to try! 


Ingredients

3 Eggs, whisked with a splash of cold water
1/2 Cup Basil, chopped (chiffonade)
1/3 Cup Walnuts, chopped

Directions

Whisk the eggs in a small bowl and add a splash of cold water.  This will help keep the eggs fluffy.

Heat your small non-stick skillet,
*MEDIUM/LOW heat only or you will burn your eggs or they will be rubbery.
drizzle a little Olive Oil in it to help keep the Eggs from sticking.
Add the eggs to the pan and do not touch!

Let Eggs cook until the bottom layer is cooked, like you are making an omelet.
Then turn over Eggs in chunks, do not whisk or stir too much.

When Eggs are almost cooked through, add the Basil.
When Eggs are fully cooked with Basil, remove from heat and gently stir in Walnuts.

I served with some berries or fruit salad.
