Smoked Salmon Scramble

SMOKED SALMON SCRAMBLE

FOOD AS MEDICINE:

Salmon is one of the best sources of cardioprotective Omega 3 essential fatty acids. Omega 3 fatty acids are responsible for reducing inflammation in the body and preventing plaque build up in the arteries as well as promoting healthy cognitive function and skin health. We also love the Omega 3s from Salmon in that they are said to increase metabolism and decrease fat cell size- particularly belly fat! Choosing Wild Caught over farmed salmon ensures you are getting all the Omega 3 salmon naturally has to offer minus harmful chemicals and hormones found in farmed salmon.

INGREDIENTS:

4 pasture-raised eggs

2 Tbsp heavy cream or coconut milk, optional

pinch sea salt

pinch black pepper

4 oz wild caught smoked salmon, torn into 1 inch pieces

1 Tbsp grassfed butter

2 Tbsp chives, chopped

2 Tbsp fresh dill, chopped

2 tsp capers

Greek Yogurt, for serving 

DIRECTIONS:

Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, sea salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add the smoked salmon pieces.

Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Once heated, add the butter.

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently to scramble, about 3 minutes.

Once cooked, fold in the chives, dill and capers. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
