Green Onion Scrambled Eggs

First Cooking Recollections: Stir up some of your earliest culinary recollections. Did you stand at your grandmother’s elbow to learn to cook? Or did you learn by stumbling through a cookbook by yourself? Share a healthy recipe and the accompanying story about one of your first cooking memories.

When I was growing up, my parents didn’t do too much cooking–most of our dinners were made by my grandma (my all-time favorite was her Stir-Fried Tomato and Eggs dish), but the one memory I have of a family effort in cooking was the fruit salad we’d make once every month (or couple of months). I think I started helping with this when I was about 4-5(?).

The recipe was simple enough–a ginormous economy-sized can of fruit cocktail, baked potatoes that were chopped up into bite-sized pieces, hardboiled eggs, and mayonnaise. We haven’t made it in years (I also haven’t lived at home in years :[ ), and I was planning on semi-adapting it since I don’t eat mayonnaise anymore.

Remember the Tahini Freekeh Power Bowls I made earlier this year? I figured I’d make a Tahini Coconut Fruit Salad!

Sounds delicious, right?!

Well, it came out looking really unappetizing so I ate the evidence. Sometimes, life just chooses not to work with you.

So instead, I have another egg dish to share with you since eggs were definitely a favorite when I was little (and also now, because some things just don’t change), but also because I happened to acquire lots of farm-fresh eggs from my last visit to Lewisburg…and I’m also growing green onion in my kitchen right now.

  1. Scrambled eggs are one of our go to easy breakfasts (or lets be honest… dinners :P) and green onions and this is such a simple but flavourful recipe!

    I’m glad I’m not the only one who ditches recipes when they look seriously unappealing haha!

    1. haha, I am all for breakfast for dinner! :D

      You’re definitely not alone! :P I thought about trying to take a picture, but I just couldn’t bring myself to do it, hahaha.

  2. If only I could get the heart eye Emoji to go here and stay here after I hit publish :-) :-)
    We are just starting to make the majority of our kitchen memories together here. We did small stuff when she was little but it’s gotten bigger over time and I love it. And this recipe will be perfect for the two of us.

    1. Aww, that’s so awesome! Kitchen memories are so much fun! <3 Here's to lots and lots of em'! :D

  3. I love scrambled eggs and this looks such a tasty way to eat them. I sometimes add vegetables or cheese but haven’t tried them with soy sauce for a long time and never with sesame oil as well. So pleased to have another simple idea for how to prepare them!

    1. I need to try throwing in more veggies for this to change it up + add more greens! :D Sesame oil is magical! <3

  4. These scrambled eggs look delicious Farrah, I love the addition of soy sauce. Such a great idea! Yum!

    1. Thanks, Harriet! It eliminated the need to throw in any salt since the soy sauce already had enough! :D!

  5. I kid you not, when I glanced at the title this morning, I thought I saw Green eggs and ham :O That would have been a fun recreation ;)

    1. hahaha, true that! I remember making that in preschool but I couldn’t eat the ham! :P

  6. Eggs are such a good source of protein! I try to have a few each week! Love your version.

    1. Me too! :D They’re such an easy + convenient protein! <3

  7. I LOVE eggs!! Seriously eat them almost everyday. So good for you too ;)

    1. Same here! They’re one of my favorite proteins! :D

  8. So funny that you didn’t post your original dish because it didn’t look good, I’ve done that so many times!!!

    This looks great and is such a dish that would come in handy so many times!

    1. hahaha, me too! This time was just way more pronounced because I was reallyyy looking forward to that salad! (At least it tasted okay though!)

      It’s great for when you don’t have much time to prepare something! :D!

  9. This looks so good! I love green onions even though I never seem to eat them (or remember to buy them at the store, to be totally honest haha). You’ve reminded me to try them out.

    1. I usually never remember to use em’ either, but now that I’m growing em’, I gotta constantly think of places to throw em’ into! :P

  10. These look delicious! I love eggs and onions.

    1. Me too! :D Yay for simple dishes!

  11. Now that looks like a flavorful breakfast. I guess I am a pretty boring chef when it comes to early morning but this looks easy enough and tasty. Thanks for sharing your great recipes Farrah!!

    1. Aww, thank you! I am all about easy/healthy/simple recipes, hehehe. I hope you like this one! <3!

  12. Oh one of my favorite things is “breakfast for dinner”! Scrambled eggs are aok with me 24-7. That was the most interesting fruit/egg/potato salad descriptions I have heard in a while, unique. I love the sound of your tahini coconut fruit salad sounds awesome! sign me up!
    Autumn @AutumnPTW.com recently posted…Boston Cream Banana BabiesMy Profile

    1. Same here! I love them at any time of day. :P

      Dudeeee, I had such high hopes for that salad, but there was no salvaging the aesthetics of it, haha. I may try again someday!

  13. Love how you got to this recipe – and adding green onions to scrambled eggs is so simple but such a great flavor boost!

    1. hehe, I guess some good came out of the first “mishap!” :D

  14. That fruit salad sounds super interesting! Not something I would put together on my own, but now I’m intrigued ;) Funny enough, green onions with scrambled eggs is one of the first things I started making for myself! My mom ALWAYS put green onions in my eggs!

    1. haha, I wish it hadn’t looked so unappetizing, or I would’ve shared the recipe! :O

      Yay! I only recently started since I’m growing em’ in my kitchen, but they’re a very welcome addition!

    Love that you “ate the evidence” of an initial recipe attempt! I’ve done that many times. Can’t go wrong with eggs and I love green onions as an addition!

    1. hahaha, I’m so glad I’m not the only one who does that! I’m glad my next attempt turned out okay! :P

  16. Green onions add SO MUCH FLAVOR to everything I cook! I love adding it to everything! My eggs, my salads, my pizzas. So much yum.

    1. They really do! I’m looking for excuses to throw em’ into everything these days since I have a nice abundant supply! :D!

  17. Goood move with the soy sauce! I will for sure have to try that!
