Zucchini and Feta Breakfast Scramble
Zucchini and Feta Breakfast Scramble: A veggie-packed, protein-rich breakfast that comes together in under 15 minutes. This scramble is loaded with fresh zucchini, crumbled feta cheese, and green onions, and it's seasoned to perfection with salt and pepper. Serve it with your favorite toppings, such as additional feta cheese, chopped vegetables, or hot sauce.
The Zucchini and Feta Breakfast Scramble was born out of a desire for a quick and easy breakfast that was both healthy and satisfying. I had some zucchini in my fridge that needed to be used up, and I knew that feta cheese would be a great addition. I also had some green onions on hand, and I thought they would add a nice pop of freshness to the dish. I whisked the eggs in a bowl and seasoned them with salt and pepper, then poured them into the skillet with the zucchini. I cooked the mixture until the eggs were set and cooked through, then stirred in the feta cheese and green onions. The scramble was so delicious that I knew I had to share it with the world.

Why It Works
  • The zucchini adds a lot of moisture to the scramble, which keeps it from becoming dry and crumbly.
  • The feta cheese adds a salty, tangy flavor to the scramble.
  • The green onions add a fresh, herbaceous flavor to the scramble.
  • The salt and pepper season the scramble to perfection.
