Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder or chives until well combined.
  2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, then sauté chopped mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
  3. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted.
  4. Pour the whisked egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet.
  5. As the eggs begin to set, gently push the cooked portions from the edges towards the center.
  6. Continue cooking and gently stirring for 3-5 minutes until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist.
  7. Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the eggs, remove from heat, and let sit for 1 minute to melt.
  8. Serve immediately with toasted whole-wheat bread.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives before serving. Adjust the amount of cheese to your preference, or try other varieties like mozzarella or goat cheese for a different twist. Be careful not to overcook the eggs; they should remain slightly moist for the best texture. If you like a firmer scramble, cook for an additional minute or two until desired consistency is reached.
