Chef's Note
The key to perfect scrambled eggs is low, slow heat and removing them from the pan while they're still slightly wet - they'll continue cooking from residual heat. For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese.

Ingredients
3 whole large eggs
2 oz smoked salmon
1 tbsp fresh dill
1 tbsp chives
1 tbsp cream cheese
1 tsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp whole milk
1 tsp capers
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp sea salt
1 slice whole grain toast
1/4 cup microgreens
Instructions
- 1
Finely chop 1 tbsp fresh dill and 1 tbsp chives. Set aside a small amount for garnish.
- 2
Crack 3 eggs into a bowl and whisk with 1 tbsp whole milk, 1/8 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until well combined but not overly frothy.
- 3
Tear or chop 2 oz smoked salmon into small pieces, reserving a few pieces for garnish.
- 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add 1 tsp unsalted butter and allow it to melt completely.
- 5
Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds until the edges begin to set.
- 6
Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center, allowing the uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
- 7
When the eggs are about 75% set but still slightly wet, add most of the chopped dill, chives, 1 tsp capers, and the smoked salmon pieces.
- 8
Drop 1 tbsp cream cheese in small dollops throughout the eggs and fold gently to incorporate.
- 9
Remove from heat when eggs are just set but still glossy and slightly creamy (they will continue cooking from residual heat).
- 10
Toast 1 slice of whole grain bread while preparing the eggs.
- 11
Sprinkle the eggs with 1/2 tsp lemon zest and the reserved herbs.
- 12
Serve immediately with the toast and garnish with reserved salmon pieces and 1/4 cup microgreens.
