  1. Ever wonder how to make the perfect scrambled eggs? I tested this method out yesterday and it truly is the best way to make scrambled eggs that I have found! Use grass-fed butter and of course skip the creme fraiche. I used very thinly sliced greed onion (scallions) instead of the chives and topped it with a dash of hot sauce. These eggs are so creamy and delicious you’d swear you were eating egg pudding.

Add lemon juice and toss again. Season again with another pinch of salt and pepper. Transfer veggies to large plate or large shallow bowl. Steaks should be rested and ready to slice. The steak should be rare. Slice against grain into 1/2 inch thick pieces. Add back to pan to brown sides (45 seconds per side). Add to top of salad, drizzle with a little more olive oil, squirt of lemon juice and ENJOY!
