Ingredients

  • 4 large Eggs
  • 0.25 cup Skim milk or unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon Extra virgin olive oil
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 1 cup Fresh spinach, chopped
  • 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 0.5 Avocado, diced

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized bowl, crack the eggs and beat them together with the skim milk or almond milk until well blended.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.

Step 3

Once the oil is warm, add the chopped spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the spinach. Allow the edges to set slightly.

Step 5

As the eggs start to set, gently push the eggs from the edges to the center using a spatula, forming soft curds.

Step 6

Sprinkle in the salt and pepper as you stir, ensuring even distribution.

Step 7

Continue to cook, gently stirring and folding the eggs over themselves, until they are mostly cooked but still slightly runny.

Step 8

Add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for another minute until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and moist.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold in the diced avocado.

Step 10

Serve the scrambled eggs immediately, garnished with additional black pepper if desired.
