Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup pitted Kalamata olives, sliced (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped red onion to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until softened and fragrant.
Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly.
Add the baby spinach leaves to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
Reduce heat to low, then pour in the whisked eggs. Allow the eggs to set slightly on the bottom before gently stirring with a spatula.
When the eggs are about halfway cooked, sprinkle in the crumbled feta cheese, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Stir gently to combine.
If using, fold in the sliced Kalamata olives and continue cooking until the eggs are fully set but still soft and creamy.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the scrambled eggs to plates.
Serve immediately with crusty bread or a side of roasted potatoes for a complete Mediterranean-style meal.
