Whisk the eggs, salt and pepper in a bowl until blended.
 
Heat a nonstick skillet to low heat and spray with nonstick spray. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure even coverage. Cook over low heat just until the eggs begin to set, lifting the edge with a spatula to allow the uncooked eggs to flow underneath.

What is the secret to making the creamiest scrambled eggs ever?

It’s one ingredient: cream cheese! Cream cheese melted into eggs is just the best idea. It makes scrambled eggs perfectly creamy and delicious. This is how I make our scrambled eggs at home now, every single time. Are you going to try them this way?

Instructions 

  • Whisk the eggs, salt and pepper in a bowl until blended.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet to low heat and spray with nonstick spray.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure even coverage. Cook over low heat just until the eggs begin to set, lifting the edge with a spatula to allow the uncooked eggs to flow underneath. Add the cream cheese to the eggs.
  • Cook until the eggs are the desired degree of doneness and the cream cheese melts, stirring gently. Sprinkle with the chives. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For scrambled eggs that are super-light and fluffy, add a little water while you whisk them.
  • Be careful not to overcook the eggs. That's the number one mistake people make with scrambled eggs!
  • If you're counting WW Points be sure to use reduced fat cream cheese to keep that point count low!

    This was Excellent! I used tons of chives, added a green onion and some cut up, fried Nathans hot dogs. I’ll never make eggs without cream cheese again! Just never thought of combining them. Next time I might skip the hot dogs and try some kalamata olives. THANKS! Cooking is so fun and creative, isn’t it?

    This looks like the perfect thing to do with the leftover cream cheese after I make your No-Bake Double Layer Pumpkin Pie recipe.
