Ingredients
- 4 egg large
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 10 grape tomatoes halved
- 1 cup baby spinach
- 1 green onions thinly sliced (green and white parts separated)
- 1 garlic minced, clove
- 2 ounces feta cheese
- parsley fresh, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Make egg mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper.
- Cook vegetables: Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the tomatoes, baby spinach, and white parts of the green onion. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes, until the tomatoes have softened and the spinach is wilted. Add the garlic and saute for another 30 seconds.
- Cook eggs: Pour the eggs into the pan, let them settle for a minute, then use a spatula to pull across the bottom, forming long curds of scrambled eggs.
- Finish scramble: When the eggs are mostly set, but a little softness remains, add the green parts of the green onion and the feta cheese. Remove the pan from the heat and continue stirring until cooked through.
- Garnish: Garnish with parsley or other fresh herbs before serving.

Notes
- Non-stick pans are recommended for scrambling at low heat to achieve tender curds.
- Both stainless steel and quality non-stick pans like Zwilling or Ballarini work well.
