Ingredients

8 large eggs
1 teaspoon BackYard Blendz Green Seasoning (Spicy Blend if you want heat)
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
Salt to taste
1/2 carrot, grated
2 pimentoes

Directions

Prep Ingredients: Start by chopping the onion and pimentoes finely. Grate the carrot and set aside.
Beat Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and add the green seasoning. Beat well until the mixture is fully combined.
Cook Vegetables: Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and pimentoes and carrot. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are soft.
Scramble Eggs: Pour the seasoned egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges to the center.
Finish Cooking: Continue to cook and stir for another 3-4 minutes until the eggs are fully cooked but still moist and slightly runny in places. Season with salt to taste.
Serve: Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Ideal with a slice of toasted bread, cucumbers or a side of fresh fruit.
