Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 2 cups Fresh spinach
• 1 cup Mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat milk
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by washing the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold water. Spin dry the spinach using a salad spinner or pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

2. Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and slice them thinly.

Step 3

3. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the low-fat milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk the mixture well until everything is combined and the eggs are slightly frothy.

Step 4

4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Swirl the pan to coat it evenly.

Step 5

5. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, and sauté them for about 3-4 minutes until they are soft and browned. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

Step 6

6. Add the spinach to the skillet with the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted.

Step 7

7. Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the spinach and mushrooms in the skillet.

Step 8

8. Allow the eggs to set slightly at the edges, then start stirring gently with a spatula, scraping the egg from the bottom of the pan.

Step 9

9. Continue stirring until the eggs are cooked to your liking, ensuring they remain soft and creamy, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 10

10. Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the scrambled eggs hot on a plate. Enjoy your heart-healthy breakfast!
