Note
- If you want to make a cheesy veggie eggs scramble, add some shredded cheddar cheese or freshly grated parmesan cheese to the scrambled eggs just before serving.
- If you’re not a fan of dried dill, you can use the dried herb of your choice, such as Italian seasoning, thyme, rosemary, or oregano.
- Alternatively, add a teaspoon of minced fresh herbs to the vegetarian scrambled eggs, like rosemary, basil, parsley, or thyme.
- Want to add some meat to your scrambled eggs with veggies? Opt for chorizo, leftover baked ham if making over the holidays, or cooked crispy bacon bits.
- For a vegan alternative, add cooked tofu.
- If you’d like to add a little heat, add a dash of Tabasco sauce or your favorite hot sauce to the scrambled egg mixture before adding it to the skillet.
