How to Make Almost Green Scrambled Eggs With Spinach

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons milk, 1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach, 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese (optional).
  3. Heat a lightly oiled non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
  5. Let the eggs cook undisturbed until the bottom is set.
  6. Gently push the cooked portions toward the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.
  7. Continue cooking, gently pushing and tilting, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist. Do not overcook.
  8. Serve immediately with whole wheat toast. Consider adding sauteed red bell peppers and mushrooms, or leftover ham for extra flavor.
