Buns and egg are a perfect combination, hence a Scrambled Egg Bun. This was our breakfast on a Saturday morning, we usually have a dish with egg on Saturday morning. I tried to stop the tradition, but Yuri won’t let me. So we’ll go on with it. Although mostly it’s just a boiled egg or omelet on bread. We started this tradition in 2014, after a vacation in Florida. Yuri loved that they had scrambled eggs at the breakfast buffet, and wanted to continue this back home. So eggs for breakfast on Saturday morning was born.
The scrambled eggs are made with milk, shallot, chicken, pepper and salt, besides eggs of course. Sundried tomatoes and basil are added after the eggs are cooked. Served on a white petit pain with some lettuce. The recipe is from the cookbook “Lekker Eten & Bewegen” from C1000.

Review
The recipe was easy to follow. I only made 2 adjustments: I used dried basil instead of fresh basil and I used half of the lettuce as was stated in the ingredients.
