Salsa Egg Scramble for One

When I need a quick and easy breakfast, usually because I forgot to meal prep for the week, this egg scramble is my go-to. Why? Well, it’s super flexible (don’t want to use salsa? chop up other veggies!), super quick (like under 5 minutes quick), healthy, and only uses one dish. On top of all that, it’s made of things I usually have on hand without needing to add anything extra to the grocery list!

Note: while this recipe uses salsa, you could chop up bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, etc. instead. Personal preference!
