Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 0.25 cup dairy-free cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the coconut milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring occasionally until the leaves are wilted, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture over the spinach in the skillet.
Step 5
Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until they start to set around the edges.
Step 6
Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, lifting and folding the eggs until they are mostly set but still slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes more.
Step 7
If using, sprinkle the dairy-free cheese over the eggs and fold once before removing the skillet from heat.
Step 8
Transfer the scrambled eggs to a serving plate and enjoy while hot.
