Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or water optional, for fluffiness
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 1/2 cup cremini or white mushrooms sliced
- 1 small garlic clove minced
- 1/2 ripe avocado sliced or cubed
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
- Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes or lemon juice
Instructions
- Sauté the Mushrooms: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil or butter. When hot, sauté the sliced mushrooms for about 5–6 minutes or until they are golden and tender. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds, then remove from heat and set aside.
- Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the three large eggs. If you want extra fluffiness, add a tablespoon of milk or water. Season with salt and black pepper, then whisk until well combined.
- Cook the Eggs: Clean the skillet and place it back on medium heat. If necessary, add a small amount of oil or butter to the pan. Pour in the whisked eggs and gently stir with a spatula. Cook for about 2–3 minutes until the eggs are just set and fluffy.
- Plate and Serve: Once the eggs are cooked, plate them with the sautéed mushrooms on the side or on top. Add slices or cubes of avocado for that creamy finish. Sprinkle fresh herbs, and for those who like a bit of spice, a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of lemon juice will be perfect!
