Strapatsada (Greek Scrambled Tomato Eggs)

Strapatsada, the famous Greek scrambled tomato eggs can be made with 3 basic ingredients: olive oil, tomatoes, and eggs. Most often, the dish includes Feta cheese and onions and/or garlic.

Most Greek families have a variation of this dish.   My uncle used to make this dish when he wanted a hearty breakfast, or sometimes even later in the day.

It’s amazing how such few ingredients can produce such a flavorful and delicious meal.

If you like Greek Breakfasts, you’ll have to try my Sfougato, which is a zucchini, feta cheese, and egg breakfast dish that is baked in the oven.  It’s similar to a crustless quiche.

Ingredients for One Serving of Strapatsada

Multiply these ingredients by the number of people you are serving.

• 1 tablespoon light olive oil
• 1 tablespoon minced onion
• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• 6 Vine Ripe Campari Tomatoes
• pinch of salt
• pinch of black pepper
• 3 large eggs
• 1  to 2 ounces Feta cheese

Since this dish has only a few ingredients, it’s important that you get the freshest tomatoes you can find.  These Vine Ripened Campari Tomatoes taste as good as they look and smell.

Directions

• Heat olive oil in a pan on low-medium heat.  Cook the minced onion for about 4 minutes, or until tender.

• Add the garlic. Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

• Cook the tomatoes for 10 minutes, or until the liquid evaporates.

• In a small bowl, beat 3 large eggs.  Stir the eggs into the tomato sauce.  Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until your preferred level of doneness.

• Stir in a generous amount of Feta cheese.
