She said: “This simple addition amps up the flavour, boosts the protein and gives you the creamiest, softest scrambled eggs.
“The yoghurt creates an irresistible richness, creamier texture, and the slightest tang. Plus, it’s a healthy – and more flavourful – alternative to the cream that’s typically used in scrambled egg recipes. You won’t believe just four ingredients can taste this good.”

The first step is to prep the eggs by adding them to a small mixing bowl and seasoning with a big pinch of salt. Add one teaspoon of olive oil and whisk until combined.
Seasoning with salt while the eggs are raw will “lock in more” of the moisture when you cook them.
In a small nonstick skillet, add one to two tablespoons of olive oil and set over medium heat. Warm the olive oil only for 30 seconds or so, then add the whisked eggs.

Cook the eggs over medium heat, stirring regularly with a spatula, until the eggs are beginning to set – there should be some wet parts.
Next, turn the heat off and add the Greek yoghurt. Continue to stir until the yoghurt is fully incorporated and the eggs have fully set. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Transfer the scrambled eggs to your plates and finish with the chives. Enjoy immediately.
