Scrambled Eggs and Onions

Scrambled Eggs and Onions

静
There are many egg recipes on My Chinese Home Kitchen, because eggs are a common ingredient in Chinese family kitchens. Today we are adding a simple and healthy scrambled eggs and onions recipe. In this recipe, I used onions and eggs because I had some onions left over from my last dinner. This simple combination allowed me to save some food in the fridge while still making a dish. Red onions are a very healthy ingredient, containing quercetin and antioxidants. Eggs are an excellent source of omega fatty acids and protein. So scrambled eggs and onions is both simple and healthy.
