Easy Baked Egg Scramble

 Avanti baked scrambled organic eggs two ways, one w/ herbs and cheese and the other fully loaded
This another Avanti favorite open-ended recipe.  No specific amounts are required.  Make it once or twice and you’ll customize it as you like.  Watch Chef Mark Cleveland and filmmaker Ryan Adams in action making these organic egg delights on the Avanti Natural Network YouTube Channel.  Fresh in the Avanti Natural Kitchen Baked Scrambled Eggs
Organic eggs and veggies ready for the oven scramble
I prefer a well-seasoned cast iron pan.  You can use a ceramic, non-stick green pan too.  The regular non-stick pans work fine as well, but make sure there are no nicks or scratches.  And it’s kind of time to phase them out now that the ceramic ones are getting much better in quality and non stick function. 
Butter & evoo in a hot pan right out of the oven
How to oven scramble one egg perfectly. 
Organic egg scramble w/ veggies almost ready to plate
Put seasoned 6 inch cast iron skillet into the oven.  No need to preheat.  Set oven to 375.  When it reaches temp, let it stay in the hot oven for 15 mins.  Whisk egg w/ a fork or spoon.  I add my hot sauce to the uncooked egg.  Go plain, or just w/ salt, pepper, herbs, cheese, about 1 T each.  Add a small pat of butter, coconut oil, evoo or a combo to the hot pan, no more than a teaspoon or so will suffice.  Once melted put the egg mixture into the hot pan.  Back in the oven for 3 mins.  Stir once, and if it needs a bit more time put it back into the oven for a minute longer
Organic egg bake w/ herbs and cheese, ready to fold
For a full breakfast meal add rice, tofu, beans, veggies etc.  About 1 cup total.  For a delish Japanese favorite add some organic cooked chicken, a little soy sauce, sake, scallion and sesame seeds and serve over organic brown rice.  The more extras you add, the longer the overall cooking time.
And the art of the folded scramble w/ veggetables
You can serve these on a plate, or right out of the hot skillet.  Put a clean and classy kitchen towel over the handle to make sure no one grabs the hot pan.
