Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the fresh spinach under cold water and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel. Roughly chop the spinach and set aside.
Clean the cremini mushrooms by gently wiping with a damp cloth to remove any dirt. Slice them thinly and set aside.
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and beat them together with a fork or whisk until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the ghee over medium heat until melted and shimmering.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are lightly browned and tender.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for another 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Pour the beaten eggs over the mushroom and spinach mixture. Use a spatula to gently stir and fold the eggs as they cook, moving the cooked eggs from the edges to the center of the skillet.
Continue cooking until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places, about 2-3 minutes. They will continue to cook off the heat.
Remove the skillet from the heat and give the eggs a final stir. Serve immediately while warm.
