Spinach and Feta Breakfast Bowl (Printable Version)

Fluffy eggs meet sautéed spinach, creamy feta, and juicy tomatoes in this hearty 20-minute morning bowl.

# Ingredient List:

→ Eggs

01 - 4 large eggs
02 - 2 tablespoons milk
03 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

→ Vegetables

04 - 2 cups fresh baby spinach, washed
05 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
06 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

→ Cheese

07 - 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese

→ Bread

08 - 2 slices whole grain bread

→ Garnish

09 - 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

# How to Make It:

01 - In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
02 - Heat 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Remove spinach and set aside.
03 - In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Pour in the egg mixture and gently scramble until just set but still creamy, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
04 - Toast the whole grain bread slices until golden and crisp.
05 - Divide the scrambled eggs between two bowls. Top each with sautéed spinach, cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta.
06 - Serve immediately with a slice of toasted whole grain bread on the side. Garnish with parsley and red pepper flakes if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It takes barely twenty minutes but tastes like you spent an hour planning your morning.
  • The combination of creamy, fresh, and tangy hits every taste bud at once without feeling heavy.
  • You can make it with whatever vegetables you have around, so it works whether you meal prepped or just opened the fridge.
02 -
  • Don't walk away while the eggs are cooking, because the difference between creamy and overdone is literally thirty seconds.
  • If your feta is very salty, rinse it briefly under cold water to dial down the intensity and let the other flavors breathe.
03 -
  • Cook your spinach and eggs in the same skillet to save time and keep flavors connected, plus it means fewer dishes to wash.
  • Crack your eggs into a separate bowl before adding to the skillet so you can whisk them properly and catch any stray shell pieces before they surprise you.
