These scrambled eggs with feta and dill are an easy way to mix in some fresh herbs and cheese to plain ol' eggs. Just a few extra ingredients will make these eggs fancy enough for a crowd, or an elegant meal for two.
Scrambled eggs are such a comfort food for me. I love them plain with a heap of salt, pepper, and ketchup. When I'm feeling a bit more fancy, these eggs have my taste buds fluttering!
The trick to soft and creamy scrambled eggs is to cook them "low and slow". Keeping the gas low, prevents burning the eggs, while slowly stirring allows for the eggs to develop into soft creamy pillows. If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried, but I highly recommend you hold out for fresh. I serve with buttered toast for a wonderful Sunday morning meal.

Top Tips
- Make sure your eggs are fresh for the best taste
- I highly recommend buying the block feta cheese and crumbling it yourself instead of the pre-crumbled feta in containers. The taste is a world above the prepackaged stuff
- Use fresh dill rather than dried. Dried dill lacks in flavor
- When scrambling the eggs, be sure to start with a low- to medium-low flame. Move the eggs slowly with a spatula to create large curds. When the eggs are done they should still be a little wet and will continue to set slightly more once taken off the flame.
Happy cooking!
