Ingredients
- 200 grams Ground beef
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 0.5 medium, diced Red bell pepper
- 50 grams Spinach
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 50 grams, shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the finely chopped onion and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and the peppers soften.
Step 3
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, breaking up the meat with a spatula, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
Step 4
Stir in the spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture over the ground beef mixture in the skillet. Let it sit without stirring for about 30 seconds to allow the edges to set slightly.
Step 7
Gently stir and fold the eggs using a spatula, allowing curds to form. Continue cooking and stirring for about 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
Step 8
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the scrambled eggs and let it melt for about 1 minute.
Step 9
Serve the high protein scrambled eggs with ground beef hot, garnished with additional cheese or herbs if desired.
