Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.25 cups milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium white onion, diced
- 1 medium bell pepper (any color), diced
- 1 cup button mushrooms, chopped
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 0.5 cups shredded cheese (optional, or dairy-free substitute)
- 1 medium avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cups salsa (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender.
Lower the heat slightly and add the baby spinach to the skillet. Cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Push the cooked vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the now-empty side of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan, allowing it to cover the surface. Let it cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set.
Gently scramble the eggs by folding them into the vegetables. Continue cooking and stirring for another 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are fully cooked but still moist.
If using shredded cheese, sprinkle it over the eggs and vegetables, and let it melt while mixing gently.
Remove the skillet from heat and divide the gluten-free breakfast scramble evenly among four plates.
Top each serving with sliced avocado. Serve immediately with salsa on the side, if desired.
