Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup, thinly sliced carrots
• 1 medium, thinly sliced zucchini
• 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
• 1 tbsp avocado oil
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: Heat avocado oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add sliced carrots and zucchini, season with 1/8 tsp sea salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper, and cook for 5-6 minutes until tender-crisp, stirring occasionally.
2. Step 2: Push vegetables to one side of the skillet. Crack eggs into the empty space, season with remaining 1/4 tsp sea salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper, and cook for 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolks are still runny.
3. Step 3: Sprinkle chopped parsley and dill evenly over eggs. Gently fold eggs with vegetables using a spatula, then slide onto a plate. Serve immediately while hot.
