½ cup mild salsa

Garnish: 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro and extra shredded cheese

Directions

Before you begin: Wash your hands.

1. In a bowl, combine eggs and salt; stir with a whisk and set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add green onions and cook for 2 minutes or until they begin to soften.
3. Add egg mixture to skillet and cook for 1 minute without stirring, until the edges of the eggs are set.

5. Remove from heat and add cheese; stir until combined and cheese begins to melt. Sprinkle with cilantro and extra cheese, if desired.
