Prepare ingredients.
Gather all ingredients. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them gently with a fork until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Clean and slice mushrooms if not pre-sliced.
Tip: Beating eggs well ensures fluffy scrambled eggs. -
Cook turkey bacon.
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook for about 3 minutes on each side or until they are browned and slightly crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
Tip: Use the same pan to keep flavors; turkey bacon cooks faster than regular bacon. -
Sauté mushrooms.
In the same skillet, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Once heated, add the sliced mushrooms. Stir occasionally and cook for about 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and lightly browned. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Tip: Avoid overcrowding the pan to allow mushrooms to brown rather than steam. -
Scramble the eggs.
Reduce heat to low. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the mushrooms. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges to the center. Continue cooking and stirring gently until eggs are softly set but still moist, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Tip: Cook eggs on low heat for creamy texture and avoid overcooking. -
Serve.
Plate the scrambled eggs with sautéed mushrooms and place the turkey bacon on the side. Serve immediately while warm.
Tip: Add fresh herbs like chives or parsley for extra flavor if desired.
Pro tips
