The best way to prepare scrambled eggs is without adding any cream or milk. If you really need a bit of thickener, try using just a splash of skim milk. You can also make this meal extra healthy by cooking some spinach or tomatoes with your eggs, which can also distract from the thinner consistency you’ll get without cream.
