Ingredients You’ll Need
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tablespoon milk or cream (optional, for creamier eggs)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or butter
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Step-by-Step Making
- Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the milk or cream if using, and whisk well until the yolks and whites are completely combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until it wilts down.
- Pour the whisked eggs over the spinach in the skillet.
- Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds until the edges begin to set.
- Gently push the cooked eggs from the edges toward the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow the uncooked egg to flow to the edges. Repeat this process until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist.
- Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the eggs.
- Gently fold the eggs a couple more times to distribute the feta. Cook for another 30 seconds to a minute until the feta is warmed through and the eggs are cooked to your liking.
- Serve immediately. This dish pairs wonderfully with a side of whole-wheat toast. For other quick breakfast ideas, check out these Carnivore Cloud Cubes.
