Scramble eggs with mushrooms
Start by warming a skillet over medium heat and toss in a bit of butter to melt. In a bowl, crack the eggs and add the mushrooms, then give everything a good whisk until well combined. Chop most of the green onions, but set aside a couple of tablespoons to use as a garnish later. Pour the egg and mushroom mixture into the buttery pan and gently scramble, stirring often to create soft, fluffy curds. As the eggs begin to set, sprinkle in the chopped green onions along with some salt and pepper. Keep cooking for about 3 to 5 minutes, making sure not to overdo it so the eggs stay tender. Once done, plate the eggs and finish with the reserved green onions on top for a fresh pop of color and flavor.
