🛒 Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp plain 0% Greek yogurt
  • 50g reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 sprays extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sliced Kalamata olives

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the Tomatoes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 spray of olive oil and sauté halved cherry tomatoes for 2–3 minutes until lightly blistered. Season with oregano, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
2. Sauté the Onions: In the same skillet, add remaining olive oil spray. Sauté thinly sliced red onion for 2 minutes until softened. Add vegetable broth and lemon juice; simmer for 1 minute to deglaze. Remove from heat.
3. Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, crack 4 large eggs and whisk together with 2 tbsp Greek yogurt until fully combined. The yogurt will add creaminess and boost protein. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

4. Cook the Eggs Low and Slow: Return skillet to medium-low heat. Pour egg mixture over the onion base. Stir gently and constantly for 4–5 minutes, scraping the bottom as curds form. Keep heat moderate to ensure creamy, soft curds, not rubbery eggs.
5. Fold in Feta and Herbs: When eggs are nearly set but still slightly wet on top, fold in crumbled reduced-fat feta, fresh dill, parsley, and Kalamata olives. Gently stir for 30 seconds—do not overmix.
6. Top and Serve: Divide scrambled eggs between two plates. Top with reserved roasted cherry tomatoes, extra dill, and a light sprinkle of red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
