2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon water
Pinch black pepper
2 tablespoons monterrey jack cheese
1/4 small avocado, sliced
Instructions
Spray a small nonstick skillet with olive oil and heat on low.
Add zucchini and onion and cook, stirring, until onion is soft.
In a small bowl, mix tomatoes, corn kernels, and cilantro. Once zucchini mixture is cooked, remove from pan into bowl with corn mixture.
Wipe the skillet clean and spray with oil again. Place back on low heat.
In another small bowl, whisk together eggs, water, and pepper. Pour egg mixture into the skillet and let cook until eggs are almost set. You may cover the skillet to cook more quickly if your burner cooks hot.
Sprinkle corn mixture onto one half of the eggs. Top with cheese and fold eggs in half over the vegetables and cheese. Continue cooking until eggs are fully set.
