Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 large egg whites
- 1 medium bell peppers
- 2 cups spinach
- 0.5 medium onion
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup feta cheese
Directions
Step 1
Start by dicing the bell pepper and onion into small, even-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, and milk until well combined and slightly frothy. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and bell pepper.
Step 4
Sauté the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and the bell pepper softens.
Step 5
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until it wilts.
Step 6
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, gently stirring and folding the eggs with a spatula. Cook until the eggs are scrambled to your desired doneness.
Step 7
Just before the eggs are fully set, sprinkle the feta cheese on top, folding it slightly into the eggs to combine.
Step 8
Serve the scrambled eggs hot, garnished with additional black pepper if desired.
