Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by rinsing and chopping the cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Set them aside for later use.
  2. Pour 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil into a non-stick skillet and place it over medium heat. Allow the oil to warm for about 30 seconds until it’s shimmering slightly.
  3. Add the diced red onion to the hot skillet, sautéing for 2 minutes until the onion turns translucent and fragrant.
  4. Toss in the chopped bell peppers into the skillet. Sauté them for 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until they soften.
  5. Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until heated through and slightly softened.
  6. Crack 4-6 eggs into a large bowl, season with salt and black pepper, and whisk until fluffy.
  7. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet over the sautéed vegetables. Reduce the heat to low and gently stir with a spatula for 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are softly set.
  8. Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and your choice of fresh herbs over the top.
  9. Serve the Mediterranean Scrambled Eggs hot, either on their own or with a side of whole-grain toast.
