Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Crack six large eggs into a mixing bowl and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Whisk the mixture vigorously for about 1-2 minutes until it becomes frothy and well combined. Gently fold in the diced ham, pineapple, and tomatoes, ensuring each ingredient is evenly distributed throughout the eggs.
  2. Place a medium nonstick skillet on the stove over medium heat. Add 2 teaspoons of unsalted butter to the pan, allowing it to melt completely and bubble gently.
  3. Pour the prepared egg mixture into the heated skillet, spreading it out gently with a spatula. Cook the eggs over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, sprinkle ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top and allow the cheese to melt gently.
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the dish rest for about 1 minute. Transfer the Hawaiian Scrambled Eggs with Cheese onto plates and serve warm.
