Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Crack 6 large eggs into a mixing bowl and add 1/4 cup of milk. Whisk vigorously until combined and frothy, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow to melt and coat the pan evenly.
  3. Add 1/4 cup diced bell peppers and 1/4 cup diced red onions to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  4. Pour in the whisked egg mixture into the skillet. Cook undisturbed for 1 minute to let edges set.
  5. Gently stir the eggs every 20-30 seconds for 3-4 minutes, creating soft curds that are creamy.
  6. When eggs are nearly set, add 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup cooked bacon bits, and 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes. Mix until combined.
  7. Remove from heat when eggs are softly set but moist.
  8. Transfer to a plate and garnish with remaining chives. Serve hot with optional hot sauce.
