  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • 8 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup whole milk or milk of choice
  • Pinch of fine salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper (about 10 twists)

Vegetables and Cheese

  • 3 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled (about 1 cup)
  • ½ cup chopped green onion, mostly green parts
  • ⅓ cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, rinsed and roughly chopped

Cooking Fat

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Optional for Serving

  • Flaky sea salt for sprinkling on top
  • Toasted whole-grain bread

Instructions

  1. Prepare the egg mixture: Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add the milk, pinch of salt, and about 10 twists of freshly ground black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and uniformly yellow. Have all your ingredients prepped and ready since the cooking time is quick.
  2. Heat the skillet and melt butter: Place a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt completely, coating the pan evenly.
  3. Cook the spinach: Add the roughly chopped baby spinach to the skillet. Stir continuously using a silicone or rubber spatula until the spinach wilts and turns bright green, which should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
  4. Scramble the eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the spinach. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Gently stir and push the eggs around the skillet using your spatula, allowing them to clump softly but remain a bit moist. This process should take approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
  5. Add cheese and extras: Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the crumbled goat cheese, chopped green onions, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
  6. Serve: Divide the scrambled eggs into bowls. Optionally, sprinkle flaky sea salt on top and serve with toasted whole-grain bread. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh baby spinach for the best texture; frozen spinach will release too much moisture.
  • Be careful not to overcook the eggs to keep them soft and creamy.
  • Sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil add extra flavor; rinse briefly to reduce excess oil if desired.
  • Optional flaky sea salt enhances the flavors when sprinkled on top just before serving.
  • Serve immediately as the eggs are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
