Kale and sun-dried tomatoes are a classic combination, and they work together beautifully in this egg scramble. The kale provides a boost of nutrients, while the sun-dried tomatoes add a bit of sweetness and acidity. This scramble is a great way to use up any leftover kale or sun-dried tomatoes, and it's also a great way to get a quick and healthy breakfast.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch kale, chopped
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 large eggs
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Stir in the kale, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Cook until the kale is wilted, about 3 minutes.
Push the kale mixture to one side of the skillet. Crack the eggs into the other side of the skillet and cook until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
Stir the kale mixture and eggs together and cook until heated through.
Serve immediately.
Why It Works
Sautéing the kale before adding the eggs helps to wilt the kale and release its natural sweetness.
Cooking the eggs over medium heat helps to prevent them from overcooking and becoming rubbery.
Adding sun-dried tomatoes to the scramble adds a bit of sweetness and acidity, which helps to balance out the flavor of the kale.
Oregano adds a touch of earthiness to the scramble, and it also helps to brighten up the flavor of the dish.
