Jalapeño and Cheddar Scramble
Those who like a little extra kick in their eggs will enjoy this dish. Customize it by adding a little extra jalapeño, which will increase the heat. The clean, bright flavor of cilantro is excellent here, and it adds color as well.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Using a whisk or a fork, beat the eggs in a small bowl until frothy.
Step 2
Heat the butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the jalapeño slices and sauté for 1 minute, or until hot.
Step 3
Pour the eggs into the pan. Cook over medium heat, constantly pushing them toward the center of the pan with a rubber spatula, until they begin to thicken. Sprinkle with the Cheddar cheese and half the cilantro. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Continue to cook and stir the eggs for another minute or so, until nearly set but still soft and creamy. Spoon the eggs onto a serving plate, sprinkle with the remaining cilantro, and serve immediately.
