Ingredients

Scale

Eggs and Dairy

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 ounces of feta cheese

Vegetables and Herbs

  • 10 grape tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced (including both green and white parts)
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Seasonings and Oils

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Gather fresh spinach, crumbled feta, chopped scallions, diced tomatoes, and briny olives. Prepare these ingredients beforehand to streamline your cooking process.
  2. Eggs: Crack four eggs into a bowl. Whisk with a pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper until the mixture is uniformly yellow to achieve a creamy texture.
  3. Sauté Vegetables: Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sauté the thinly sliced green onion until fragrant, then add the baby spinach and cook until wilted, releasing a burst of aroma.
  4. Cooking the Eggs: Reduce the heat to low. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Let sit briefly, then gently stir with a spatula to cook eggs evenly, resulting in fluffy and moist scrambled eggs.
  5. Finishing Touches: Gently fold in the halved grape tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese into the eggs, allowing them to warm and blend for texture contrast and vibrant Mediterranean flavors.
  6. Serving: Serve immediately once cooked to your preferred consistency. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added color and freshness. Optionally, add extra herbs or spices for more depth.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best flavor and texture.
  • Feel free to add olives or other Mediterranean ingredients like sun-dried tomatoes for extra taste.
  • Cook eggs on low heat to avoid overcooking and ensure creaminess.
  • Serve with crusty bread or pita for a complete meal.
  • Adjust salt and pepper seasoning to taste to balance feta’s saltiness.
