Feta Eggs
A very TASTY way to add zip to boring scrambled eggs.
A very TASTY way to add zip to boring scrambled eggs.
I didn't actually follow this recipe because we have been making our own scrambled eggs with feta cheese in it for years. Heres how we make ours: Scramble plain eggs with milk like you normally would for scrambled eggs, then once its almost through cooking, add a hearty chunk of feta cheese (Vigo is the best kind). Dont be afraid to use a lot. Be sure to crumble it small so it melts and all the eggs have some feta, not just some with huge chunks. Once you stir that in and the eggs are finished cooking, sprinkle some finely crumbled oregano over the eggs and stir that in. YUMMY

Wow - feta cheese and scrambled eggs together!Who knew it would make for such a tasty combination! I cut the recipe in half and added just a bit of milk to the eggs to get them nice and fluffy. I used cherry tomatoes cut in half and upped the feta a bit because I love the stuff. This only needed just a bit of fresh cracked black pepper for seasoning. Perfect with a side of whole grain toast!
Good. But the tomatoes made mine kind of soggy (seeing as tomatoes secrete juices when they are heated). I suggest you use a tomato that has been at room tempurature and add it near the end, as opposed letting it melt in with everything. In other words, don't actually cook the tomatoes! Gives everything a more "fresh" taste anyway.
I made this for breakfast this morning and I think it is very deserving of 5 stars. I used egg beaters (30 calories per "egg" versus 70) but then added a bit more feta (the basil & sun dried tomato variety). Delicious! I think it would be good with some red bell peppers & mushrooms too.
For such an easy twist on eggs, it turned out so great! I'm ashamed I never thought of feta and tomatoes with egg before. I'm definitely keeping this one on hand to mix it up and to show it off to Mom! :D
A yummy way to spruce up eggs, but more feta is needed to bring out the other flavors. We added garlic, which was a nice addition, but the overall product was a little bland.
Wow! Had my doubts about this but was pleasantly surprised. Reduced the recipe using only two eggs but kept everything else the same. Great flavor. Went well with Canadian bacon.
I'm not usually a big scrambled egg fan but every so often I get the urge to have some and I figured I'd try this recipe out. All I had on hand was shallots and some seasoned feta so that's what I used. Turned out great and tasted terrific. I used a lot more feta than called for though. Just kind of sprinkled a couple of handfuls into my eggs. Delicious idea!
My favorite way to cook eggs. Doesn't need any added salt, the feta does it for you.
These were really good and so easy to make. A nice change from the usual old scrambled eggs (makes me wonder why I didn't think of it myself.) I do agree with Markaree's review that the feta isn't all that noticeable and the recipe could use another tablespoon or two. Great recipe, though!
This is delicious! I cut the recipe in half, and used a red onion, diced small, sauteed in a Tblsp. of whipped butter. I also added a spoon of ice cold water to the eggs before cooking them, which tends to make them more fluffy. For the tomatoes I just used one roma tomato, which was actually closer to 1/2 cup. This was quick to make, which I loved, and very tasty. Thanks
This is a very TASTY way to add zip to boring scrambled eggs. I used chopped roma tomatoes, very little chopped, red onions, and freshly ground black pepper. I left out the salt. To my eggs I always add a tad bit of skim milk to help make them fluffy. I whipped up the eggs and added it to the hot skillet. Boy, I was pleasantly surprised how this combination turned out. this was very tasty. I loved the added bite from the feta cheese and they balanced out nicely with the chopped up sweet tomatoes. flavors were great, nothing overpowering. served with whole wheat toast and sliced portuguese sausage. YUMMO! This is a definite repeat for me.
Such a yummy treat for breakfast! We've already made this a couple of times on Sunday. I wouldn't change a thing!
I LOVED THIS! I was going to make eggs..then saw I had feta cheese...so I was going to add them together. Looked online and found this recipe..glad I did. Glad I hade tomatoes on hand..that were ripe...that made it REALLY good..I love this..I took mine..and toasted a flour tortilla..and made a taquito out of it. Had some real bacon bits..threw some of that on there...and it was AMAZING!
So good BUT for a real treat try adding some spinach with the tomatoes and feta. Divine!
This was lovely, but I couldn't really taste the feta. I think I'll just add the onions and tomatoes to my eggs from now on. Another yummy vegetable with scrambled eggs is spinach.
I just finished eating the whole pan of these myself. Yum. I added a little more feta than the recipe called for.
my greek boyfriend loved it - but didnt like the tomatoes so much, next time i will add some greek olives
Didn't really care for the feta in my eggs. I'll stick to other cheeses.
Delicious combination - I mixed up the ratios a bit (for one serving: 2 eggs, no tomatoes, extra feta and seasoned with oregano instead of salt/pepper) and it was fantastic. I'm not usually a big fan of eggs but this recipe was irresistible; will definitely be putting it on our regular rotation.
I cook for only myself in the morning, so I make little adjustments. I use a tad of butter, add a small handful of fresh spinach leaves, and let them wilt. I scramble 2 eggs, add organic black pepper and sea salt, crumble in a few chunks of feta, and fold over until light and fluffy. I eat this every day!
Delish! I used 5 eggs instead of 4. Other than that, I followed the recipe precisely. I'll definitely be making these again.
Outstanding. The flavors are incredible together! Everyone loved them. The only thing I will do differently in the future is to make this more often! ;o)
This was really good, although I added quite a bit more feta than the recipe called for.
Family loved this recipe. Had doubled the recipe and even with everything else I had done there was none left over. Thank you for sharing.
Great recipe, I loosely followed ingredient amounts and it still turned out great as I had expected. Lots could be added to this such as ham or asparagus. Really versatile and tasty recipe.
Really good! I doubled the feta, and next time I think I'll throw in some basil near the end too.
What a great recipe--simple yet delicious, and easy to adapt. It really doesn't need the salt & pepper at all. Next time I'm going to sub egg whites and add chopped spinach.
I had this for breakfast everyday this week! I sauteed the onions until translucent then added the tomates (grape tomatoes cut in half) and sauteed until the tomatoes were nice and done. The feta added a great taste.
didn't have time to chop so just used canned diced tomato's w/ green chilis (1/3c) in place of the tomato & onion. Very delicious to me, the g/f was just OK w/ them
this recipe is SUCH a keeper. I don't know that I'll make scrambled eggs any other way now. only change was to omit salt (the feta's got it covered!) and add some dried herbs de provence. YUM.
I shop at Grocery Outlet quite a bit, so I can usually buy feta there without too much damage to my food budget. I did cut this to two servings and used one egg white, one whole egg and I added some chopped red pepper and fresh mushrooms. I also used EVOO. Very filling and a tasty change from your usual scrambled eggs.
I just made these and they were wonderful! Everything we love in one meal and what a great change for breakfast. My husband moaned while he ate them so I know they were good. Thank you Kerry!
These were good eggs. They looked really pretty too. I used onion powder instead of real onion and sprinkled the top with chives too. This would be great rolled up in a warm flour tortilla. Thanks, I enjoyed this dish quite a bit.
Love feta with eggs! To "veggie it up" a little more, toss about 1 1/2 cups finely sliced fresh spinach leaves to the pan for a few minutes before you add the eggs.
I love this recipe. I use only one whole egg and two whites. Also I add spinach and finish it off with a little lemon juice. Very tangy and light. Yummy!
the fresh ingredients in this recipe gave a nice twist to my morning eggs! for personal preferences,i omitted the butter and onion and just sprayed the pan with cooking spray. i also added the tomatoes at the end so they didn't get mushy, and i used only egg whites instead of whole eggs. but i stayed with the basic idea of tomatoes and feta, and it was great! thanks!
Yum! Thanks for the great idea! I didn't have a tomato, but I did add some fresh dill. Delicious! Normally I'm not a big fan of eggs, but I will definitely make this again.
Great way to fix eggs if you like feta cheese. Lots of flavor in this recipe. Thanks Kerry for sharing it! I know we'll be having this again.
I wasn't sure if I would like feta in my eggs but it is awesome. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
The "idea" sounded good but at the same time not right. I was wrong, even my picky 7 year old liked them. It said to salt and pepper to taste, well we like garlic on almost everything so we used garlic salt. To avoid soggy eggs, when you do the tomato make sure you get the seeds out. This one is a recipe keeper thanks so much for taking boring scrambled eggs and zesting them up in a new way.
Yum! To make fluffier eggs, use a little water, works better than milk. and since tomatoes should never be refrigerated before cooking why heat them at all? Toss in at the last minute so they don't weep.
This tasted great for our Christmas morning breakfast, and looked festive, too.
I used olive oil for the fat, skipped the tomatoes (they're out of season). I used 1 T feta per egg, and sprinkled on dried oregano. The olive oil and oregano go really well w/this dish.
I was skeptical about using feta cheese, but this actually tastes really good. AND I AM PICKY!!! :O)
We LOVE these! I make this all of the time. Does NOT serve 4 adults though... unless you each want a little. Yummy
I followed this recipe pretty closely except for a few things - once the butter had melted, I poured some of it out. I also omitted the onion as I did not have it on hand. Overall, this is a good recipe and a great way to use up tomato and feta cheese. I suppose you could experiment with other cheeses as well. Next time, I may use more cheese - but this recipe is pretty spot on as is. :)
Great recipe - I loved it! I added some basil as previous reviews had and almost doubled the feta and it was great. I will definitely make this again.
I've used this recipe in the past and what I've found that makes it even better is to add a little bit of whole milk or cream as you scramble the eggs. The milk and the feta mixed together makes it taste creamy and delicious. I also used cage free local eggs which I think always taste better. Also, taking out the seeds of the tomatoes before adding them to the eggs reduces the sogginess, which I sometimes found to be a problem.
I like that it dressed up plain scrambled eggs, however this just didn’t work for me. For my personal tastes, this was ok but not great.
i just cooked these eggs for my brother and I and they tasted great :)
Oh my goodness!! I just made these on a whim (for myself only, noone in my family wanted any breakfast).....these are absolutely delicious!!!!
Loved it! I cut up some grape tomatoes and which worked great! It will fill you up!
Lovely recipe - I made the eggs for Sunday Brunch along with a Stuffed Portabello Mushroom. 16 grain toast Mmmm I enjoyed the feta with tomato and added a dsh of Greek spice. Only made two eggs
What a great combination of ingredients. Very tasty. Go light on salt. The feta is plenty salty enough.
I want to make a different scrambled eggs. So i found this and it was scrumptious. But instead of onions (because I don't like them that much)I used leeks. Also I was out of tomatoes, so I used salsa instead. I included mushrooms because I love them in my eggs. The recipe was awesome!
This is delicious, but I also stir in a little sour cream and spinach. Absolutely wonderful!! I use grape tomatoes so I don't have any problems with it getting runny.
I will never do my scrambled eggs any differently, delicious...thank you
I listen to reviews and used EVOO and sauted my onions. Trying to make it low-cal...I used 1/2 cup of southwestern egg beaters and scrambled them. (only 60 cal.) When almost done I added the feta cheese. Once on my plate I topped it with Garden Fresh Gourmet "Sweet Onion" Salsa! Delicious!
Very good! Had some feta cheese I had to use up. I used green onion and added it at the same time with the tomatoes and feta. Also added some bell pepper, was delicious!
Yum!!!!! Quick, easy, and delicious!!!!! LOVE it!!!
These are delicious! As many others have said, I don't know why I never thought of adding feta to my scrambles! I've ordered scrambles with it, but have never done it at home for some reason! It's SO perfect with the egg...the saltiness with the blandness of the egg. Mmmm. I used red pepper in place of tomatoes (what I had on hand/prefer), onion powder in place of onion, added some chopped spinach, and doubled the feta (would add even more next time as the flavor is still faint). Very good though. Definitely a keeper.
It's quite good, but I think it needs a bit more flavor than salt and pepper. Maybe some tobacco or sirancho.
I used extra feta but still could not taste them. Also added some garlic. I think it needed pepper and a bit more salt. I don't know if I will make it again.
Brilliant and easy. Really creamy. I loved it! Its great to do with just 1 egg if you want something light. I added basil and skipped the pepper and salt!
Loved this! Of course I love anything with Feta! I don't eat eggs very often but being Sunday morning, I sometimes make them for brunch. Hubby's doesn't normally like feta and was going to make his separately. He said he would try it and really liked it! Yeah! I salt & peppered the chopped tomatoes and let them set while doing everything else. I pressed them with a paper towel before adding to eggs to get rid of a lot of the moisture so it wouldn't come out in the eggs. I would add fresh spinach to this next time... And I certainly will make them again! Thank you!
Very good!!! We added fresh bacon in with the eggs and mixed fresh parsley in before serving and both additions made it more hearty and beautiful to look at. Very easy to make and delicious. Definitely will make again... Excellent use of leftover feta!
Omitted the salt and tomatoes. I used kalamata olives (recommended by another reviewer) and increased the feta. I also added a little milk to the egg mixture before I added the eggs to the pan. Great base recipe that's easy and has unlimited possibilites. Next time I will add either garlic or oregano like others recommended or herbed feta. Also want to try it with green or red peppers. Again, great base recipe that allows the cook to adapt to their personal preferences. Will make again!
This was a good, easy Sunday breakfast. I added spinach, and, like other reviewers, I topped the eggs with the tomatoes (I used grape for extra flavor). Next time, I'll add fresh oregano and mushrooms--yum!
I omitted the tomatoes because I react to them - but this was absolutely DELICIOUS!
I tried this for a dinner meal served over toasted sliced bagette. WOW..tastes great! It's so quick and easy and yummy!
I am not a fan of cooked tomatoes unless it is pasta/pizza sauce. I added Mrs. Dash tomato basil season instead. I think sundried tomatoes could also be a good substitute.
I love it. I sometimes add chopped red bell peppers with the onions in the beginning in place of tomatoes. Feta is a nice change of flavor.
Is a surprise for your mouth. Feta is not overwhelming like I feared may be. It's not. It's good. My modified version of recipe was to use green onions and skipped the tomatoes, probably would have been okay but could have made the eggs too wet. If I were to use tomatoes though it would have been the smaller than cherry tomatoes. Must use pepper though. Pepper to taste. Very good. Will make again sometime. Yummy.
This was great! I halved the recipe for my breakfast. I upped the feta, 3 tablespoons to 2 eggs & used cherry tomatoes! Sprinkled some fresh basil on top! Hubby ended up trying it & finishing it for me! Definitely a keeper!
I added 3 tbsp of feta cheese and parsley. Love the flavor. I am going to try this with caramelized onions next time.
This is a very delicious variation of scrambled eggs. The feta and tomato add a lot of flavor and bring the dish from boring to addictive.
I thought this recipe was delicious. Tomatoes and feta cheese go so well together. I think that three eggs are enough if you're only making one serving.
Made it for 1 (me) for a quick and healthful lunch. With a glass of skim milk and a piece of toast it really hit the spot. Lots of cheese/vegetable variations come to mind, so I can use up those little bits of things in the fridge and still have a great luch. Thanks.
Sun dried tomatoes work! No worries about the soggy! Still, fresh on top!
added mushrooms, red peppers, chives and diced ham as well as the other stuff. it is a great way to stretch your egg and have a one skillet breakfast. Served it with buttered toast. yummy. Thanks Happy Cooking!
Eggs turned out good. I’m not crazy about scrambled eggs but I wanted something different today. Followed recipe exactly and it was good but needs more feta cheese so next time I will double the amount.
It's pretty tasty for the few ingredients it has- tricked the kids into eating some vegetables with their breakfast
Absolutely Delicious! I really enjoyed the Feta Eggs. I am a big fan of feta so I actually added about a tablespoon. Delicious!
Had this for quick dinner the other night and it was pretty good! Instead of butter I've used olive oil and added mushrooms to the mix.
Excellent recipe. I made it a couple of times for breakfast and it was a hit.
Tasty...I sauteed the onion in the butter, added a little milk and mayo to the egg with s/p. I though it was much better than just plain. Good for a dinner even.
