Low Carb Ham Scramble
Real Restaurant Breakfast Recipe
Preparation time: 10 minutes. Serves 2
Ingredients:
1 1/2 teaspoon each of butter and vegetable oil
1/2 cup of diced cooked ham (or bacon or chicken)
1-2 tablespoons diced green pepper
1-2 tablespoons diced red onion
4 eggs (Now, if you want to reduce the carbs even more you can use egg whites only, no yolks. See a fun way to separate the yolks below.)
Heat the butter and the oil over low heat in a skillet
While the pan is heating, beat the eggs in a small bowl with a wire whip until blended
When the butter and oil are hot enough to sizzle a drop of water, add the ham, green pepper and onion and sauté briefly, stirring and shaking the pan often
Add the eggs and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally as the eggs cook (do not let eggs get brown)
Salt and pepper, if desired
Remove eggs in the pan by dividing and sliding onto two plates
