Broccoli with Scrambled Eggs 🥦

Sometimes, it's those spontaneous kitchen experiments that yield the most delicious results. The fresh broccoli, lightly steamed with butter and a hint of spice from the red pepper flakes, paired harmoniously with the creamy, perfectly cooked eggs. Apart from enjoying it as a breakfast, it is also a perfect dish for vegetarians! I had it ready in no time.
