1/2 cup tomato,chopped and seeded
1/4 cup onion, chopped

1. Spray 10 inch skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Cook tomato, onion and bell pepper over medium heat about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender.
2. Mix eggs, tarragon and salt together in a bowl until smooth. Pour into skillet.
3. As mixture begins to set at bottom and side of skillet, gently lift cooked portions with spatula so the thin, uncooked portions can flow to the bottom. Avoid constant stirring. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until eggs are thickened throughout, but still moist.
