Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 cups spinach
- 4 strips vegetarian bacon
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Place the vegetarian bacon strips in a dry skillet over medium heat and cook until crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove, chop into bite-sized pieces, and set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Whisk together until well combined.
Step 3
Add salt and black pepper to the egg mixture and whisk again to incorporate evenly.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until wilted.
Step 5
Add the egg mixture into the skillet with the spinach. Let it sit undisturbed for a few seconds until the edges start to set.
Step 6
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, forming soft curds. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly runny.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped vegetarian bacon over the eggs.
Step 8
Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese and allow the eggs to fully set, being careful not to overcook them.
Step 9
Remove from heat, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
