This is my recipe for a very delicious, and special, version of scrambled eggs. Everyone loves it and there are never any leftovers. I have written the recipe for one serving, but you may multiply it accordingly.

Ingredients For bacon egg & cheese scramble

  • 2-3 slice
    hickory smoked sliced bacon
  • 2 lg
    eggs
  • 1 pinch
    salt
  • 1 pinch
    freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  • 2 Tbsp
    extra-sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp
    fresh chives (optional)

How To Make bacon egg & cheese scramble

  • 1
    Fry bacon in small nonstick skillet (for 1 serving or medium to large skillet for multiplied recipe) over medium heat, turning slices frequently, until browned and crisp.
  • 2
    Place bacon on paper towel to drain.
  • 3
    Drain all grease from skillet, but do not wipe skillet clean.
  • 4
    Crumble bacon; set aside.
  • 5
    Add eggs, salt and pepper (if using) to a small bowl or cup; whisk with fork until well-blended.
  • 6
    Place the skillet over medium heat; add beaten eggs.
  • 7
    Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until eggs are about 2/3 cooked (mostly firm with some loose egg.)
  • 8
    Quickly stir in cheese and shut the heat off; continue to mix cheese into eggs until it begins to melt and eggs have firmed, being very careful not to over-cook (if over-cooked, the eggs will become rubbery.)
  • 9
    Stir in 1/2 of the crumbled bacon.
  • 10
    Remove to warm serving plate; sprinkle with remaining crumbled bacon and chives.
  • 11
    Garnish as desired. Serve immediately.
