1
Chop Vegetables
Dice the bell pepper and onion into small pieces. Ensure they are roughly the same size for even cooking.
2
Beat the Eggs
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
3
Prepare Optional Ingredients
If using, chop the fresh parsley and set aside. Grate the cheese if you are adding it to the dish.

4
Sauté Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized.
5
Add Eggs
Pour the beaten eggs over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Allow the mixture to cook for a minute without stirring.
6
Scramble the Eggs
Once the edges of the eggs start to set, gently stir with a spatula, pulling the cooked edges towards the center. Continue cooking until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
7
Finish and Serve
If using, sprinkle the chopped parsley and grated cheese over the top just before serving. Serve warm with toast or on a sandwich.
