Keep breakfast simple but nutrient-dense with this easy, scrambled eggs and veggies recipe! Loaded with protein, vegetables and topped with healthy fat, this egg and veggie scramble is the perfect healthy breakfast.

Likewise, as a Certified Nutrition Coach, I love this egg scramble because it:

  • contains 20g of protein per serving
  • is low carb, dairy-free, and whole30 approved
  • uses up vegetables you have in the fridge
  • comes together in under 30 minutes

Get More Veggies Into Your Diet

Looking for more ways to boost your veggie intake? Get in a serving or two at breakfast! 

These scrambled eggs and veggies are not only loaded with protein in each serving but you'll also get in 1-2 servings of vegetables too.

Thus, this is a great way to kick-off the day!

What Vegetables Are Good With Scrambled Eggs?

All of them! While this egg and vegetable scramble lists specific vegetables, the truth is you can use whatever you have access to in the fridge.

So long as you keep the carrots for texture, any of the following vegetables will taste great in this recipe:

  • mushrooms
  • bell peppers
  • asparagus
  • cauliflower (chop is very small)

Mix and catch with what you have and enjoy a different flavor each time you whip up the dish!

Is This Recipe Whole30 Approved?

Yes! The scrambled eggs and veggies use primarily protein and vegetables. Thus making is Whole30-friendly.

That said, you need to be careful to use coconut aminos and not soya sauce if you're following the whole30 diet (learn more about coconut aminos).

However, if you're not following the diet, feel free to use regular or gluten-free soya sauce.

Topping The Healthy Breakfast Scramble

The dish is delicious all on its own. However, it tastes even better topped with any of the following choices:

  • sliced avocados
  • fresh salsa
  • green onion

Furthermore, get creative and use what you have to make this breakfast recipe convenient and delicious to you!

What Is Nutritional Yeast?

Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast that has a cheesy flavor. It's a wonderful option for vegans and vegetarians because it's rich in vitamin B-12.

In this breakfast recipe, it is used to add flavor to the dish without having to opt for dairy (learn more about eliminating dairy and still loving food).

30 Minutes Or Less

This healthy breakfast scramble comes together in under thirty minutes (win!). While this may still seem like a lot of time in the morning there is a hack:

Whip it up ahead of time and simply reheat in a skillet in the morning! Still the same flavor and nutrients but you shave off some time.

Otherwise, these scrambled eggs and veggies make for a tasty weekend brunch.

  • ½ sweet onion

  • 1 bell pepper

  • 5 cremini mushrooms

How To Make The Scramble

Prep all the veggies (peel and chop). In a pan, heat one tablespoon of oil over medium to high heat (depending on your pan).

Cast iron skillet with glass bowls of vegetables around it

Put the onions, mushrooms, peppers, and carrots into the pan. Cover and cook roughly ten minutes, stirring once or twice.

While the veggies are cooking, prep a smaller pan with nonstick spray. Whisk together the egg and egg whites. Pour the mixture into the pan.

Meanwhile, when the veggies are cooked through, add in the coconut aminos and nutritional yeast. Mix to combine. Cook for 1-2 more minutes until the sauce is absorbed. Then, remove the pan from the heat.

Finish cooking the scrambled eggs.

The nutritional breakdown does not include spinach or avocado toppings.
Lastly, any veggies work for this scramble! The carrots help the texture but outside of that, use what you have in the fridge (peppers, asparagus, etc).
