Scrambled Eggs With Queso Fresco

Recipe Description

Since I learned how to make my own Queso Fresco, I’ve been adding this Mexican cheese to lots of my recipes. These Scrambled Eggs With Queso Fresco make a great fresh, healthy and filling breakfast!

My secret to perfect scrambled eggs is to cook them slowly over low heat. Start by beating eggs in a bowl. Melt butter in a pan and add the eggs. Stir the egg slowly and steadily as it cooks over a low-medium heat. ONce the scrambled egg has formed, add the cheese and cook for another half minute until the cheese is warm. Top these eggs with your favorite toppings or enjoy them as they are!

To make Scrambled Eggs With Queso Fresco, you will need the following ingredients:
