Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Spinach, fresh 90g
  • ½ cup Feta cheese, crumbled 75g
  • 4 Eggs, large
  • 2 tablespoons Heavy cream 30ml
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil 15ml
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt 1.25g
  • ¼ teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground 0.5g

Instructions

  • Begin by washing the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly and patting them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the heavy cream, and whisk together until well combined. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the spinach and sauté until it is just wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the wilted spinach. Allow it to sit undisturbed for about 1 minute, then gently stir with a spatula, creating large, soft curds.
  • When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top. Continue to cook, folding the mixture until the cheese is warmed through and the eggs are cooked to your liking.
  • Remove from heat and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, omit the feta cheese or substitute with a dairy-free cheese alternative.
Personalize the scramble with additional keto-friendly ingredients like mushrooms, bell peppers, or cooked bacon.
Ensure the skillet is not overcrowded to allow the eggs to cook evenly and prevent sogginess.
