Equipment

Ingredients
  

For the Base

  • 1 tbsp Butter Adds richness and flavor; substitute with olive oil for a dairy-free option.
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil Prevents butter from browning too quickly; can be used alone for a lighter taste.
  • 250 grams Mushrooms Provides umami and texture; cherry tomatoes can be used as a vibrant substitute.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Enhances all the flavors; adjust according to personal preference.
  • 1/8 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds a hint of heat; freshly cracked offers the best flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Herbs Use basil, thyme, oregano, or parsley for an extra flavor boost.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Dried Chili Flakes Optional; offers a spicy kick if desired.
  • 2-3 cloves Garlic Infuses the dish with aromatic flavor; mince just before use to avoid bitterness.
  • 100 grams Baby Spinach Adds nutrition and a fresh taste; feel free to substitute with kale or Swiss chard.
  • 4 eggs Eggs Acts as the primary source of protein; can be substituted with egg whites for a healthier option.
  • 1 cup Grated Cheese Optional; adds creaminess and richness; use your favorite type such as cheddar or parmesan.

Instructions
 

Directions

  • Prep Ingredients: Rinse and drain the spinach thoroughly, trimming any excess stems. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined, creating a fluffy base for your dish.
  • Cook Mushrooms: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter along with olive oil. Once melted, toss in the chopped mushrooms, seasoning them with salt, pepper, herbs, and chili flakes. Sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes, then add the minced garlic and stir for another minute.
  • Add Spinach & Eggs: Incorporate the spinach into the skillet, stirring until it wilts down. Slowly pour in the beaten eggs, stirring gently with a spatula. Cook until the eggs are just set, removing from the heat when still slightly soft to achieve a creamy texture.
  • Serve: Dish out your fluffy scrambled eggs warm, enjoying them on their own or paired with a fresh garden salad or crusty toast.

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and customize with herbs as desired.
