Scrambled Eggs with Salmon

Ingredients

1 teaspoon butter

1 large egg

2 large egg whites

2 tablespoons non-fat milk

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

2 ounces smoked salmon, chopped

Sprig of fresh dill or chopped green onion for garnish (optional)

Directions

Melt the butter in a small skillet set over low heat.

In a small bowl vigorously whisk together the egg, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper until well blended.

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, constantly stirring and scraping the eggs until they begin to form soft curds.

Remove from the heat when the eggs are still creamy and soft (remember, scrambled eggs are like meat—they continue to cook even after you remove them from the heat) and gently stir in the smoked salmon.

Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Top with dill or green onion, if desired.

Notes

No smoked salmon? Substitute chopped cooked ham, sausage or bacon

Vegetarian? Substitute veggie crumbles or just skip the salmon and add your favorite veggies. Onions, mushrooms and peppers would be nice.
