Breakfast is the best meal of the day, and we eat it anytime of day around these parts. One of my favorite things to do is take basics and mess with them a little, or add a little something extra. My husband and I love sauteed spinach for dinner. I'm also looking for ways to add veggies to scrambled eggs, so I came up with this idea. Combines two things we love and it's good for you too!
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon butter or earth balance (if desired)
1 crushed garlic clove
3 handfuls of spinach (about 1/2 a small bag or bunch)
splash of lemon juice salt & pepper to taste
4 eggs (or 8 egg whites), beaten with splash of milk
Directions:
Heat olive oil in pan with butter over medium heat, until butter melts. Saute garlic (swirling around pan in olive oil) until fragrant, about one minute. Remove garlic clove (if desired) and add all of spinach. Saute spinach quickly, until slightly wilted (about 30 seconds). Add lemon juice and reduce heat to medium low. Add beaten eggs and milk and cook, stirring eggs slowly until almost set. (Eggs should be soft and not dry.) Remove from pan and serve immediately with salt & pepper to taste.
Serves 2-3 people.
