Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 100 grams diced ham
- 0.5 medium, diced bell peppers
- 6 halved cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup spinach
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup, shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk them together until fully combined and slightly frothy.
In a large non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the diced ham and bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the ham is slightly browned.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit, undisturbed, for about 10-15 seconds until the edges start to set.
With a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edge of the skillet towards the center. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for about 2-3 more minutes.
Once the eggs begin to form soft curds, add the cherry tomatoes and spinach to the skillet. Continue cooking until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency and the spinach is wilted.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs. Gently fold the eggs to incorporate the cheese, then remove from heat.
Serve the scrambled eggs hot, and enjoy your keto-friendly breakfast!
