Tomato Feta Scrambled Eggs

Tomato Feta Scrambled Eggs

If you are tired of the same old eggs for breakfast, this tomato and feta scrambled egg version is a game changer.  First, the juicy tomatoes add just the right amount of freshness.  Then comes the crumbled feta, which melts in slightly and gives every bite a creamy, tangy pop of flavor.  You also get onion and garlic cooked in olive oil and fresh herbs. Everything comes together perfectly to create scrambled eggs that are loaded with protein and made with fresh ingredients.   A quick and hearty breakfast that is ready to eat in ten minutes, this dish feels just a little fancy without any extra effort.  Serve with a rustic toast and a sprinkle of fresh herbs with more feta cheese on top.
