Huevos Pericos Scrambled Eggs With Tomato And Scallions Food

Huevos Pericos is a traditional and very popular Colombian breakfast. It is, simply, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and scallions. Adding corn makes for a delicious variation of the traditional dish and the best part is, it's a super easy recipe. Serve it with arepa and cheese on the side. Buen provecho!

Once upon a time I lived in Colombia for a year. This was my favorite breakfast there. Serve with buttered toast and cafe con leche (coffee with hot milk). This recipe duplicates that taste memory for me. I once had this with some chopped fresh spinach leaves sauteed with the vegetables, and that was very nice, but that is not how it is normally served. You can use diced yellow onion instead of the green onion if you prefer.
