Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, beat 3 large eggs until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1/2 cup of chopped fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until wilted.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the spinach in the skillet. Allow the eggs to set for a minute, then gently lift the edges with a spatula, tilting the skillet to let the uncooked eggs flow to the edges.
