Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons milk
Instructions
Wash and dry the spinach thoroughly. Chop the spinach into smaller pieces for quicker cooking.
Core and dice the red and green bell peppers into small bite-sized pieces.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Beat them together with a whisk or fork until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the diced red and green bell peppers.
Sauté the bell peppers for about 3-4 minutes or until they start to soften.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour the beaten eggs over the vegetables in the skillet. Let the eggs sit without stirring for about 10-15 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs and vegetables together, pulling the eggs from the edges to the center. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set and slightly creamy.
Remove the scrambled eggs from the skillet immediately to avoid overcooking. Serve hot.
