Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup spinach leaves
- 0.25 cup feta cheese
- 0.25 cup kalamata olives
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons oregano
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together until fully combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Mince the garlic and add it to the skillet. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they soften and release their juices.
Stir in the spinach leaves and cook for 1-2 minutes, until wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Stir gently to combine with the vegetables.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese, chopped kalamata olives, oregano, salt, and black pepper evenly over the eggs.
Allow the eggs to cook gently, stirring occasionally, until they are just set but still creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the Mediterranean Eggs to serving plates.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot with crusty bread or pita on the side.
