Bacon and optional green onions elevate these otherwise ordinary scrambled eggs. Serve them along with toast, hash browns, and fresh sliced melon for a fabulous hearty breakfast. Or pile some on a croissant or English muffin for a delicious breakfast sandwich.
Mexican scrambled eggs, also known as migas, are another great way to enjoy scrambled eggs, or you might like these creamed eggs.

Ingredients
Scale
- 4 to 6 strips bacon
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion tops, optional
Instructions
- Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp; remove the bacon to paper towels to drain. Crumble the bacon and set aside. Wipe out the skillet.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, salt, and pepper until well blended.
- Melt the butter in the skillet over medium-low heat until hot; pour in egg mixture. Reduce heat. As the egg mixture begins to set on bottom and sides of the skillet, lift and fold over with a spatula. Cook until eggs are almost set; fold in the bacon and green onion, if using. Heat through and serve immediately.
