Step-by-Step Instructions for Mediterranean Scrambled Eggs
  1. Rinse and chop the cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Set them aside.
  2. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.
  3. Add the diced red onion to the skillet and sauté for about 2 minutes until it becomes translucent.
  4. Introduce the chopped bell peppers to the skillet, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until they soften.
  5. Stir in the chopped cherry tomatoes and let them cook for an extra 1-2 minutes until heated through.
  6. In a bowl, lightly beat 4-6 eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  7. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, reducing the heat to low. Stir gently for about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle crumbled feta and chopped fresh herbs on top of the scrambled eggs.
  9. Plate the Mediterranean scrambled eggs immediately while they are still warm. Serve them alongside whole-grain toast or pita.
