Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup fresh spinach
• 0.5 small onion
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk the mixture until the yolks and whites are thoroughly combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Prepare the spinach by washing it thoroughly and drying it with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Roughly chop the spinach into smaller pieces.

Step 3

Peel the onion and finely chop half of it to yield approximately 1/4 cup of chopped onions.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, swirling it around the pan to combine with the olive oil.

Step 5

Add the chopped onions to the skillet. Sauté them for about 2-3 minutes, or until they become translucent and slightly golden.

Step 6

Add the chopped spinach to the onions. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the spinach is wilted.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture over the spinach and onions. Let the eggs sit, undisturbed, for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, allowing the edges to begin setting.

Step 8

Gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue cooking and gently stirring, allowing the uncooked eggs to flow to the edges, for about 3-5 minutes or until the eggs are mostly set but still soft and creamy.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and let the residual heat finish cooking the eggs to your desired doneness.

Step 10

Transfer the scrambled eggs to serving plates and enjoy immediately!
