How to Make Perfect Skinny Scrambled Eggs

Scrambled eggs are such a tasty and easy dish for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. There are so many ways to make them. The secret ingredient to making these so light and dreamy is to mix a little nonfat yogurt into the eggs before cooking. To keep them skinny, I’m using a combination of egg whites and eggs and topped with a little light cheese. Each serving has 132 calories and 7 grams of fat.

Shopping Tips

Whenever a recipe calls for using the full egg, I love Egg-Land’s Best eggs. They have less saturated fat, less cholesterol, more Vitamin D, more Vitamin E, and double the Omega 3 than regular eggs. Most supermarkets see them in the egg aisle. They now make an organic variety or I buy other brands that are organic, grass fed.
