Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Whisk the Eggs

1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and frothy.
2. This aerates the eggs and makes them extra fluffy.

Step 2: Heat the Pan

1. Heat a non-stick skillet over low to medium-low heat.
2. Add butter or olive oil and let it melt, swirling to coat the pan.

Step 3: Cook the Eggs Slowly

1. Pour in the egg mixture.
2. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for 10–15 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula.
3. Continue stirring slowly, pushing eggs from the edges to the center.

Step 4: Add Boursin Cheese

1. When the eggs are about 75% set but still creamy, dot small spoonfuls of Boursin over the top.
2. Stir gently to melt and incorporate the cheese without over-mixing.
3. Remove from heat while still slightly soft—residual heat will finish cooking.

Step 5: Garnish & Serve

1. Plate the eggs and top with chopped herbs or a sprinkle of pepper.
2. Serve over toast, alongside roasted veggies, or in a breakfast burrito.

Tips for Perfect Creamy Scrambled Eggs
Low & Slow – Cook over low heat for soft, custard-like eggs.
Don’t Overcook – Remove from heat just before fully set.
Use Fresh Eggs – Fresher eggs have better texture and color.
Add Cheese Late – Helps keep the flavor distinct and melty.
Customize – Try other Boursin flavors or a touch of Parmesan for a twist.

Serving Suggestions
On Toast – Pile on warm bread and top with avocado or smoked salmon.
In a Wrap – Add to a whole grain tortilla with greens and tomatoes.
With a Side Salad – A light green salad adds freshness.
Next to Roasted Potatoes – For a hearty brunch plate.
With Fresh Fruit – Balance the richness with berries or melon.

How to Store & Reheat

Let eggs cool, then store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Reheat:
Stovetop: Gently reheat in a non-stick pan over low heat with a splash of milk.
Microwave: Heat in short bursts (15–20 seconds), stirring between to avoid overcooking.
