2 piece (medium) of Scrambled Eggs (Olive Oil) (110 g) has 176 calories. That works out to 160 calories per 100 g. It contains 1.7 g of carbs, 11.6 g of protein, 13.8 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 22 µg of Biotin covers 73% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 0 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Scrambled eggs with olive oil are eggs beaten and gently cooked in a pan with olive oil. Scrambling is a familiar preparation in many cuisines rather than a dish tied to one specific place. Cooked slowly, the eggs form soft, loose curds with a mild flavour; higher heat can make them firmer and drier.
They work well for breakfast or brunch, served on toast or alongside tomatoes, greens, or other simple sides. The eggs provide protein, while olive oil adds richness and most of the dish’s fat, making this a satisfying option. For a lighter plate, use the oil sparingly and cook over low heat; herbs or sautéed vegetables add freshness without needing a heavier accompaniment.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Cook scrambled eggs with olive oil over low heat and stir gently, folding the eggs from the edges toward the center. Take the pan off the heat while the curds still look slightly moist; residual heat will finish cooking them without drying them out.
Yes, you can add a small splash of milk to scrambled eggs made with olive oil, but it is optional. Too much milk can make the eggs watery, so leave it out if you prefer a richer egg flavor and firmer curds.
Yes, olive oil works well for scrambled eggs and gives them a mild fruity flavor. Warm a thin coating in the pan before adding the eggs, but avoid letting the oil smoke, which can make the flavor harsh.
Scrambled eggs made with olive oil can turn watery if they are cooked too quickly or left in the pan too long. Use low heat and remove them while they are still slightly glossy; cook watery add-ins such as tomatoes separately first.
Scrambled eggs with olive oil become rubbery when they are overcooked. High heat makes the egg proteins tighten quickly, so cook slowly and take the pan off the heat as soon as the curds are just set.
You can salt scrambled eggs made with olive oil either before cooking or as they cook. Salting them just before they go into the pan is a simple way to season them evenly; add delicate herbs near the end so they stay fresh-tasting.
Scrambled eggs made with olive oil keep in a covered container in the refrigerator for 3–4 days. Refrigerate them promptly after cooking rather than leaving them at room temperature, and discard them if they smell or look unusual.
Reheat scrambled eggs made with olive oil gently in a pan over low heat, stirring until evenly hot. A microwave also works in short bursts, but it can make the eggs rubbery; avoid reheating the same portion more than once.
Yes, you can freeze scrambled eggs made with olive oil, but thawed eggs may be watery or rubbery. For a better texture, make them fresh; if freezing leftovers, use an airtight container and thaw them in the refrigerator.
Scrambled eggs made with olive oil pair well with toast, roasted tomatoes, sautéed greens, or avocado. For a simple breakfast, serve them with toast and fresh vegetables; herbs such as chives or parsley add freshness without overpowering the eggs.
