Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs (equivalent) egg whites
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon water
Instructions
Crack your eggs and separate the egg whites into a small mixing bowl. Discard the yolks or save them for another use.
Add a teaspoon of water, salt, and ground black pepper to the egg whites. Whisk gently until lightly frothy.
Rinse the baby spinach under cold water and pat dry. Finely mince the garlic clove.
Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds, stirring frequently, until fragrant (avoid burning).
Add the baby spinach to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the egg white mixture. Let it sit for about 10 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula to scramble.
Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the egg whites are fully set but still moist, about 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the scrambled egg whites with spinach and garlic to a plate and serve immediately.
