Zesty Tomato and Egg Scramble
A high-quality, fluffy egg scramble enhanced with aromatic garlic, dried oregano, and jammy sautéed tomatoes!
Ingredients
- 2 large, seeded and diced Tomatoes
- 6 Large Eggs
- 2 tbsp Whole Milk
- 1/4 cup, finely minced Yellow Onion
- 1 clove, minced Garlic
- 1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
- 1/2 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar
- 1.5 tbsp Unsalted Butter
- 4 Corn Tortillas
Instructions
- Whisk eggs with milk, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt until well-incorporated and slightly frothy; the milk ensures a softer curd for the toddler.
- Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sauté minced onions until translucent (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add the diced tomatoes and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have broken down into a thick, jammy consistency and most excess moisture has evaporated.
- Remove the tomato-onion mixture from the pan and set aside briefly.
- Wipe the pan, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture.
- Use a silicone spatula to gently push the eggs from the edges to the center, creating large, soft curds. When eggs are 75% cooked, fold the tomato mixture and shredded cheese back into the eggs.
- Cook until eggs are fully set and cheese is melted to ensure food safety for the toddler, while maintaining a moist texture.
- Briefly char the corn tortillas over an open flame or in a hot dry pan until pliable and fragrant.
- Serve the scramble inside or alongside the warm tortillas, ensuring toddler portions are cut into safe, manageable bites.
