Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 1 red bell pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
• 0.5 cups cheddar cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing your ingredients. Dice the red bell pepper and chop the fresh spinach into smaller pieces. Chop the fresh parsley finely.

Step 2

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 3

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted and begins to bubble, add the diced bell peppers.

Step 4

Sauté the bell peppers for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 5

Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and continue to cook for about 1-2 minutes, just until the spinach has wilted.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring that it evenly coats the surface of the pan.

Step 7

Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs occasionally, pushing the mixture from the edges towards the center. Continue to cook until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs and stir until the cheese melts and is evenly distributed.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from the heat. The residual heat will continue to cook the eggs to perfection.

Step 10

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your keto-friendly scrambled eggs warm.
