Huevos pericos

In colombian and venezuelan cuisine, huevos pericos (english: "parrot eggs") refers to a dish prepared with scrambled eggs, butter, sautéed diced onions, bell pepper, and tomatoes. scallions are a frequent substitution or addition to the onions, especially in colombia. huevos pericos may also include chopped cilantro greens, annatto for coloring, and occasionally hot peppers. it can be regarded as a tropical version of scrambled eggs and can be eaten alone, with bread, usually at breakfast time; or at any time, as an arepa filling. the name comes from the bright colors of the scallions, tomato, peppers and eggs, mimicking the colors of a parrot (perico).
