Flavorful scrambled eggs not using a lot of salt. Fluffy and creamy at the same time. Sometimes I like to top it off with some paprika, but it is really good just on its own.

    fresh dill (or a dash of dried dill)

How To Make dilly chive eggs

  • 1
    Heat butter in small frying pan on low heat. Don't turn up heat!
  • 2
    Scramble eggs really well in a bowl, using whisk or fork. Add dash salt, dash pepper, chopped chives and dill.
  • 3
    When butter is completely melted, pour in eggs. Into the empty bowl, add a dash of milk, then pour that into the pan, too. Don't mix this right away! Let it sit sit in the pan for about 30 seconds on the low heat.
  • 4
    After about 30 seconds, give it a few mixes. Keep on low heat. Let sit for about 15 more seconds. Mix again, then turn off heat and let sit in pan.

    Now make your toast, and top with slice of ham. Slide your eggs on top of ham, and enjoy these light, flavorful and creamy eggs! I like mine with a few slices of good cheese on the side like sharp cheddar or Amish white cheese.
