Scrambled Eggs with Rice

Another great breakfast or brunch recipe.

Ingredients

• dash of cooking oil
• small onion, finely chopped
• 6 eggs
• 1/2 milk
• 2/3 cup cooked rice (brown works best)*
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• salt & ground pepper

Method

• In a pan, sauté onion in oil until soft and golden
• In a bowl lightly whisk the eggs
• Add rice, cheese, salt and pepper to the eggs and whisk until evenly mixed
• When the onion is cooked, pour the egg mix evenly into the pan
• Stir frequently until the eggs are cooked (I find using an egg lifter to flip sections of the egg mix frequently works better than just plain stirring).

* Note - I usually do a cook a batch of brown rice at the weekend and keep it in the fridge to use in various recipes through the week.
