Turmeric scrambled eggs with veggies
These turmeric scrambled eggs are a great way to super charge “normal” scrambled eggs with an extra anti oxidant boost.
I’m sure you’ve heard about the health benefits of consuming turmeric, although you might be wondering how to add it into your diet.
I think turmeric goes really well with eggs, any way you like to cook them. Just remember to also add some pepper to help with absorption of the turmeric. Try sprinkling some on top of your fried eggs, or boiled eggs too.
I also love to sprinkle turmeric and smoked paprika, salt & pepper over veggies when I bake them.
This turmeric scrambled eggs recipe has some spinach and tomatoes added as well, so you’ll get an extra hit of veggies too.
