Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Whole wheat pita breads
- 6 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Slice the pita breads in half to create pockets and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the whisked eggs to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and fluffy scrambled eggs are formed. Remove from heat.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and roughly chop the baby spinach.
Gently warm the pita halves in a toaster or skillet for 1-2 minutes to make them more flexible, if desired.
Stuff each pita pocket with the scrambled eggs, cherry tomatoes, baby spinach, shredded cheddar cheese, and avocado slices.
Optionally, drizzle with hot sauce for an extra kick.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
