These Boursin scrambled eggs, silky smooth with a subtle savory flavor, are what I like to make for breakfast or brunch when we have overnight friends or family visiting. We enjoy them served with sautéed mushrooms and sliced tomatoes on the side.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons half-and-half
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons garlic and fine herbs spreadable cheese , such as Boursin®
- ground black pepper
- chopped fresh parsley or chives , for garnish
Instructions
-
1
Whisk eggs, half-and-half, and a pinch of salt together in a small bowl.
-
2
Melt butter in a medium nonstick pan over medium-low heat. When butter starts to bubble, pour in egg mixture. Using a silicone spatula, gently swirl the eggs around in circles from the outside in, without stopping, until you start to see small curds, about 20 to 30 seconds.
-
3
Switch from making circles to making long sweeps across the pan until you see larger curds, about 20 seconds. When eggs are about 75% cooked, gently fold in crumbled cheese. The eggs now should be softly set and still a little runny in places.

Remove the skillet from the heat, and set aside for about 20 to 35 seconds to allow the residual heat to finish cooking to your preferred consistency.

5
Garnish with parsley or chives, and serve immediately.

Strawberry Cheesecake French Toast
French toast topped with glazed strawberries and stuffed with cheesecake. Soooo good and original. Perfect to impress at a brunch. Serve with mimosas for a fancier brunch-type setting, or just make it for a special Saturday morning breakfast for your family like I do.
Easy Brownie In A Mug
I love this recipe, especially while babysitting younger kids (they love this) and during the hot summers (when it's unbearable to turn the oven on). It's quick, easy and clean.
Vitamix Hummus
This Vitamix hummus is the result of my quest for hummus that is perfectly creamy and flavorful. We have many Middle Eastern restaurants in metro Detroit and I've always wanted to perfect the recipe at home. The secret to ultimate creaminess with this recipe is the Vitamix blender, which really emulsifies the mixture so it's not grainy. Using a food processor in the past, it never came out smooth. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and lightly garnish with a dash of paprika or minced parsley if desired. Sprinkle toasted pine nuts on top when serving for a savory variation. Great with freshly baked pita, pretzels, or sliced vegetables.
