Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs or flax eggs for vegan option
  • 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Whole grain bread or gluten-free bread, toasted
  • Optional: Red pepper flakes, fresh herbs like basil or cilantro

Instructions

  1. Prep the vegetables: wash and chop the spinach, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the avocado.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté spinach and tomatoes until spinach wilts and tomatoes soften, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Crack eggs into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and whisk. For flax eggs, mix 2 tbsp flaxseed meal with 5 tbsp water and let sit until thickened.
  4. Pour eggs (or flax mixture) into skillet, stirring to scramble. Cook 2-3 minutes or until desired doneness.
  5. If using, sprinkle feta cheese over eggs and let melt slightly before removing from heat.
  6. Toast bread slices. Spread avocado on toast, drizzle with lemon juice, and add a pinch of salt.
  7. Top toast with scrambled mixture. Garnish with red pepper flakes and fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

Bring eggs to room temperature before cooking for a creamy texture. Don’t overcook—gentle heat yields fluffier eggs. Use kale or Swiss chard instead of spinach, and skip the feta for a dairy-free version. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
