Scrambled eggs with feta cheese
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. The idea of making scrambled eggs with feta cheese at home came to me after visiting a Bulgarian restaurant, where they use this cheese in many dishes. As with other variations of scrambled eggs, I usually add various ingredients I have in the refrigerator and that I think go well together. In this recipe for scrambled eggs with feta, I used lettuce leaves, onion, tomatoes, and garlic. You can add your own ingredients, but the main thing is not to forget to add feta cheese—the cheese will make the taste magical. The finished dish can be served at the table.
