This is a versatile, great brunch/lunch or light supper that uses up the vegetables you have in your crisper! You will notice that in the pictures provided, I used green beans (because that's what I had on hand) and didn't include tomatoes. The ingredients listed in the recipe were what I had when I first made this; since then, there have been many variations on the theme and I'm sure there will be more.

How To Make confetti eggs

  • 1
    Saute onions until transparent, then add the minced garlic. Cook for another minute, being careful not to burn garlic.

    Add vegetables all at once. Note - if substituting vegetables that require longer cooking times, add them in first and saute until almost finished THEN add quicker cooking ingredients.
  • 3
    When vegetables are almost done, prepare eggs however you like. Be careful not to finish them before the vegetables are ready to go - nothing worse than cold cooked eggs- ick!
