Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Crack eggs into a bowl, add cream cheese, and whisk until no streaks remain.

  2. Step 2

    Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, ~60 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in eggs and stir slowly every 20 seconds until soft curds form but edges still look wet.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from heat when eggs are creamy but not runny — residual heat will set them.

  5. Step 5

    Fold in chives and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately with toasted bread and roasted vegetables alongside.
