Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)

- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.

- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until wilted.

Notes
- For a creamier texture, add a tablespoon of cream cheese to the egg mixture before whisking.
- To customize, try adding diced tomatoes, bell peppers, or onions for extra flavor and nutrition.
