Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 medium (diced) red bell pepper
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 2 stalks (sliced thinly) green onions
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (grated) parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk until well combined.
Dice the red bell pepper and thinly slice the green onions. Roughly chop the parsley.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter, letting the butter melt completely.
Add the diced bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the baby spinach and cook for another minute until it wilts slightly.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet.
Allow the eggs to set slightly along the edges, then gently stir the mixture with a spatula, folding from the edges to the center. Repeat every few seconds to create soft curds.
When the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly glossy, sprinkle in the green onions, parsley, and parmesan cheese. Stir gently to combine.
Once the eggs are fully cooked to your desired consistency, remove the skillet from the heat immediately to prevent overcooking.
Serve warm with toast, avocado slices, or your favorite brunch sides.
