Bacon & Leek Scramble

This hearty scramble will fill you up to start your day.

Ingredients:
8 eggs
4-6 pieces of thick-cut bacon
¼ cup milk
½ cup chopped leeks, white and light green parts only
½ Walla Walla sweet onion, peeled and diced
1 tablespoon freshly-chopped parsley
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper

Method:
1. Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook through until crisp. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, and then drain off all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease. Then, add the leeks and onion to the pan and cook, stirring constantly, for an additional 2-3 minutes, until both are softened and fragrant.

2. Crack eggs and break over a shallow bowl. Break yolks with a whisk or fork, then whisk together with the milk, seasoning generously with salt and pepper. Add eggs to the frying pan and mix with the vegetables. Cook, stirring occasionally until eggs are set and no longer runny.

3. Meanwhile, chop the bacon into bite sized-pieces. Once the scramble is set, gently mix in the bacon bits and freshly-chopped parsley and serve immediately.
