Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces ground sausage (pork or turkey, Paleo-friendly)
- 4 cups fresh spinach
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and add the coconut milk, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until well combined and slightly frothy. Set aside.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the cooked sausage from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the fresh spinach and sauté until it is wilted and tender, about 2-3 minutes.
Once the spinach is wilted, lower the heat slightly to medium-low and pour in the egg mixture. Let it set for a moment, then gently stir with a spatula, pulling the cooked edges in towards the center.
As the eggs begin to set, add the cooked sausage back into the skillet and continue to gently stir until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft, about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the eggs.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, dividing onto plates for each serving. Enjoy your delicious Paleo scrambled eggs with spinach and sausage!
