Instructions
Place a skillet on the stove-top over medium heat. Add ½ tsp olive oil.
Add onion and hash browns to the skillet. Stir to evenly coat vegetables with oil. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring once or twice for even browning.
While potatoes and onions are cooking, crack 2 eggs into a bowl for scrambled eggs. Add 1 Tbsp water. Beat with a fork until well blended. Set aside.
Add zucchini. Sprinkle all vegetables in the skillet with salt. Cook for 3-5 minutes until zucchini is starting to brown, but not mushy. Place vegetables into a serving bowl.
Add remaining ½ tsp olive oil to the skillet. Pour eggs into skillet and turn once or twice to create scrambled eggs. Eggs will cook in about 1 minute because the skillet is already hot.
Adding water to scrambled eggs before cooking makes them fluffy. Adding milk makes them creamy.
When scrambling eggs, do not overcook. Remove the skillet from the heat when the eggs are still a bit liquid. They will continue to set for a minute after cooking. This makes them soft and creamy instead of rubbery.
Depending on your calorie or points allowance for the day, this recipe is also good with breakfast meat or cheese, which makes it similar to a Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowl.
Breakfast bowls may be made in advance and kept in the refrigerator or freezer, but the texture will not be as good. Store in a container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for 1 to 1 ½ minutes.
