Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup spinach
- 6 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Rinse the spinach thoroughly and pat it dry. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the spinach to the pan and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring often, until it wilts.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes until they are slightly softened.
Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit for about 15-20 seconds without stirring, then gently stir with a spatula to scramble the eggs, incorporating the spinach and tomatoes.
When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Continue to gently fold and stir until the cheese has melted and the eggs are fully cooked to your liking.
Remove the skillet from the heat and serve immediately. Enjoy your Spinach Tomato Egg Cheese Scramble!
