Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 0.25 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
• 0.25 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 cup baby spinach
• 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 tablespoon hot sauce
• 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, crack 4 large eggs and add 2 tablespoons of unsweetened almond milk. Whisk together until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the cherry tomatoes and baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes begin to soften.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to cook undisturbed for 30 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, bringing the cooked eggs from the edges towards the center of the pan.

Step 5

After the eggs start to set, add 0.25 cup of chopped Kalamata olives and 0.25 cup of crumbled feta cheese. Continue to gently stir, ensuring the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Season the scrambled eggs with 0.25 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper and 0.125 teaspoon of sea salt.

Step 7

Cook until the eggs are just set and still creamy. If you prefer firmer eggs, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Remove from heat and drizzle 1 tablespoon of hot sauce over the scrambled eggs before serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Scrambled Eggs with Hot Sauce warm!
