Calories 456kcal

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup Red onion chopped fine
  • 1/2 cup Grape tomatoes quartered
  • 6 oz Deli ham chopped
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 8 Eggs beaten
  • 4 slices Sourdough bread toasted (or bread of your choice)
  • 4 tsp Cotija cheese crumbled fine
  • 4 tsp Hot sauce optional
  • 2 Asian Pear cored and sliced (Check the Fruit guide to substitute seasonal fruits)
  • 2 tbsp Scallions chopped

Instructions

  • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the oil, onion, and tomato. Saute until they start to soften. Then add in the ham, saute until it starts to brown.
  • Add the butter and eggs into the pan. Move the eggs using circular motions with a spatula or wooden spoon to fluff up and cook, (move the pan on and off the heat as needed to prevent the eggs from overcooking or drying out). Remove the pan from the heat while the eggs are still moist.  Season with pepper. Taste and add salt if needed. 
  • Lightly toast the bread.
  • Top the eggs with cheese and hot sauce. Serve with toast and pear. Garnish with scallions.
