Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Baby spinach, chopped
- 0.25 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 Whole-wheat pita breads
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Swirl to coat the pan evenly.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until wilted.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, stirring gently with a spatula as it cooks to form soft, fluffy scrambled eggs. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
Once the eggs are cooked through, remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the crumbled feta cheese.
Cut the pita breads in half and gently open the pockets. If necessary, warm the pita breads in a dry skillet or microwave for 20 seconds to make them pliable.
Spoon the scrambled egg mixture into each pita pocket, dividing it evenly between all four halves.
Drizzle with optional hot sauce for added flavor before serving.
