instructions
    1

    Gather all your ingredients—4 eggs, 1 cup of cheese, 1/2 cup of salsa, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, 1 tablespoon of butter, and 2 stalks of green onion.

    2

    In a bowl, crack the 4 eggs and beat them well until the yolks and whites are combined. It should take about 1 minute.

    3

    Chop the 2 stalks of green onion finely; this will add a nice flavor and garnish to your scrambled eggs.

    4

    In a nonstick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Let it melt completely, which should take around 1 minute.

    5

    Once the butter is hot, pour in the beaten eggs and immediately sprinkle in the salt and pepper. Stir gently and continuously with a spatula to prevent the eggs from sticking, cooking for about 3 to 5 minutes until they start to set but are still slightly runny.

    6

    Add the 1 cup of cheese and chopped green onions to the eggs. Continue stirring until the cheese melts and the eggs are fully cooked to your liking, about another 2 minutes.

    7

    Remove the skillet from heat and gently fold in the salsa, being careful not to overmix. Serve immediately for a fresh and flavorful dish.
