Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • onion small, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp thyme dried
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 8 eggs large
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tbsp parsley chopped fresh
  • 4 Tomatoes large, halved
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  • Add the diced onion, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs together. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the beef and onion mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Continue cooking the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency.
  • While the eggs are cooking, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the halved tomatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the tomatoes for about 5 minutes on each side, until they are slightly softened and grill marks appear.
  • Serve the beef and egg scramble hot, topped with crumbled feta cheese, chopped fresh parsley, and the grilled tomatoes on the side.

    Easy and delish! I loved the juicy tomatoes on the side. Definitely tastes like the Mediterranean!

  2. 5 stars
    This recipe is fantastic! The flavors are just perfect together. Will make it again for sure.

  3. 4 stars
    Will try it! Just a question, do the tomatoes really need to be grilled? Can’t I just eat them raw?

    Heard you can cook it with chicken too? 🤔 Sounds like a downgrade. But, anyway, good job!

    I might be missing something but what’s with the cooking order? Seemed a bit off to me.

    I didn’t have any feta, so I used cheddar. It turned out great anyway! Still a hit with the family.

    Looks good but I dunno about ground beef for breakfast. Seems weird to me. Eggs are supposed to be light and not heavy.

    Isn’t this basically just a fancy omelet? Not impressed. Meat and eggs don’t really mix well.

      I think this dish is something special! It’s not just an omelet; it’s packed with flavor and protein. Give it a try before judging!

    Not bad, but not great either. Just ok. I think I’ll stick to my usual breakfast.

    Yummy! I made this today, but I used turkey instead of beef. Still turned out great! Will definitely make it again!

    I don’t have fresh tomatoes, used canned ones instead. Still tasted alright. But I’ll try again when I get fresh ones.

    Great recipe! I used leftover roast beef instead of ground beef and it worked fine.

    1. 5 stars
      That sounds like a smart way to use leftovers! I’m definitely going to try that.

  15. 3 stars
    I didn’t have feta, so I used cheddar. Still turned out good I guess.

  16. 3 stars
    lol, I accidentally added 1 tsp of thyme instead of 1/2. Oops! Still was good tho!

    Wow, who knew grilling tomatoes would make such a difference? This was delicious!

    1. 2 stars
      I dunno, grilled tomatoes? Sounds weird, like is it really that good? I always just eat them raw.

      Grilling tomatoes is a game changer! Adds such a nice flavor. I’m gonna try it next time for sure.

    Isn’t this just scrambled eggs with beef? Sounds too simple.

  20. 5 stars
    So good! I didn’t have parsley, so I used cilantro. Tasted yum!

    This recipe is AMAZING! I’m a huge fan of Mediterranean flavors, and this hits the spot. The feta adds the perfect tang!

    I gotta say, this recipe is pretty bland. Needs more spices if you ask me.

    Is it really Mediterranean if there’s beef? just saying.

  25. 5 stars
    This was awesome! The beef and eggs combo is just perfect. My kids loved it!

  26. 2 stars
    Not my thing… I don’t like cooked tomatoes. I didn’t grill them and replaced them with avocado. Was okay, I guess.

  27. User avatar yvonne.deckow10 says:

    Not for me. Beef and eggs? What are we, cavemen? I’ll stick to my oatmeal.

  29. 2 stars
    I don’t know about mixing beef with eggs. Seems weird.

      I dunno… looks kinda bland to me. Maybe add some hot sauce? Just saying.

    This recipe was fantastic! I loved the flavors of the beef and feta. Grilling the tomatoes made a huge difference!

      Sounds good, but I think it could use some more spices. Maybe some chili or cumin? Just a thought!

    2. User avatar terminatorXYZ says:

      I’m so glad you enjoyed it! The grilled tomatoes really elevate the dish, don’t they? I’ll definitely be making this again.

  35. 2 stars
    I don’t know why everyone loves this. The egg scramble was kinda dry and the beef didn’t have much seasoning. I’ve had better.

  36. User avatar yuonne.stehr87 says:

    Needed a bit more salt. Follow the instructions, but not the spice amounts. lol

  37. 1 star
    Grilled tomatoes? Ain’t nobody got time for that!

    1. User avatar jackson.morar1967 says:

      5 stars
      Grilled tomatoes are awesome! They add a fresh flavor. You should give it a shot, it’s worth it!

    2. User avatar deeann.nienow says:

      2 stars
      Nah, I don’t see the point. Just throw those tomatoes in the scramble. Who has time for that extra step?

  38. User avatar delena.rice says:

    This is not Mediterranean, where’s the olives? Was expecting more zest. 😒

  39. User avatar Gurney Halleck says:

    My kids loved this, but I thought it was a bit salty. Maybe reduce the salt by half next time?

  40. User avatar jayson.green69 says:

    5 stars
    Yum! I added some hot sauce and it took it to the next level. Definitely making again!

    I don’t understand why we need so many eggs. Is that even necessary? Seems like a waste. I usually just use 3.

    idk it was alright… not gonna win any chef awards here lol

    1. User avatar Isobel Boehm says:

      Chef awards are overrated. I’d eat it! 😂

      Honestly, I think it looks tasty! Maybe you just gotta season it more? 🤷‍♂️
