Scrambled eggs with chives is a healthy vegetable option to stir fry with eggs. Chives pair well with eggs and are the leaves of garlic. The chives add a flavor to the eggs that is a cross between scallions and garlic. An alternative to green chives is yellow chives, which are a little milder and sweeter. Yellow chives are grown without sunlight unlike green chives, so you can also give that option a try if your Asian grocer is carrying them.
