This is the perfect time of year to enjoy fresh produce and farm fresh eggs for a beautiful, colorful meal. Although most people only think of eggs for breakfast, this meal is great for any quick meal, any time of the day. One of the best things about this recipe, besides the taste, is the big bang-for-your-buck in terms of health benefits.
The Superfood Scramble combines the health benefits of not one, not two, not even three, but FOUR known superfoods in one easy meal. Just look at some of the health benefits of the ingredients:
Don't let the simplicity of the dish fool you. There is more flavor in the small dish than in some of the most elaborate recipes you can find.
1. In a small skillet, over medium-low heat, melt 1/2 Tablespoon butter. Add the onion and tomatoes. Cook for 2 minutes, until tender.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the egg and egg whites. Pour over the onions and tomatoes. Using a spatula, carefully begin stirring the eggs. Add the spinach.
3. Cook the eggs and vegetables over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently to provide a light and fluffy scramble. If the egg is setting too quickly, reduce the heat.
4. When the scramble is almost completely set, sprinkle with cheese, salt and pepper (to taste). Continue to gently stir.
5. Lay the sliced avocado on a plate and then top with the warm scramble.
6. Serve and enjoy immediately.
