Ingredients

  • 2 tomatoes
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 stalk green onion
  • 1 tsp low-sodium tamari
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • serve with rice

Instructions

  • Crack 2 eggs into a small mixing bowl and stir until it’s well mixed. Sliced the green onions and separate the white part from the green part of the onion. Lastly, dice 1 tomato into smaller pieces, and dice the other into larger chunks.
  • Heat the pan first, then add avocado oil. Add the egg mixture to the pan and allow it to puff up. When the egg is about 80% of the way cooked, remove it from the pan and set it aside.
  • Turn the heat to medium-low. Add the white part of the green onions and sauté for about 1 minute. Then, add the small, diced tomatoes and tamari. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until the tomatoes have turned into a paste.
  • Add the larger, diced tomatoes and sauté for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until soft. Add the scrambled eggs back in and break them up into smaller pieces. Garnish with remaining green onions and serve with rice.
