Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Wash and dry the spinach leaves thoroughly. Halve the cherry tomatoes and set aside.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the almond milk. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the pan and sauté for about 2 minutes, until they start to soften.
Add the spinach to the pan with the tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted.
Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and tomatoes in the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pulling the eggs from the edges toward the center.
Continue to cook and gently stir the eggs, making sure they cook evenly, for 3 to 4 minutes, until the eggs are just set and still slightly creamy.
Remove the pan from the heat and serve the scrambled eggs warm. Enjoy your low carb, nutrient-packed breakfast!
