This Spinach & Goat Cheese Scrambled Eggs recipe makes flavorful, high-protein breakfast that is super quick and simple to make!

I love having eggs in the morning and eat them almost every single day. They are a nutritious, excellent source of protein and keep me feeling full until lunch. On weekday mornings, I usually have fried or plain scrambled eggs. On the weekend however, I like to experiment and cook eggs with various add-ins like different types of cheeses, vegetables and aromatics.
These Spinach & Goat Cheese Scrambled Eggs are one of my favorite ways to enjoy eggs. The spinach gives an additional dose of vitamins and minerals, while the goat cheese adds a soft, creamy tang that really takes these scrambled eggs over the top. Since they only take 10 minutes to make, they are quick enough for busy weekday mornings. Although, you don’t need to save all this goodness for breakfast time only – this recipe makes an easy, fuss-free brunch, lunch or dinner option as well.

I love eggs too and could eat them every single day without getting sick of them! That being said, it’s wonderful to mix it up a little bit from time to time and this looks like a great way to do just that! I almost always have spinach and goat cheese on hand so this will be happening real soon!!

Hi Kelly! ♡ Thanks so much! Hope you have a great week! xoxo
ooooh yum! i like doing this with feta, but i bet the goat cheese is just as tasty (and more creamy too!).
Hey Heather! ♡ Oh I haven’t done scrambled eggs with feta before! That would be yummilicious. But yes goat cheese def has just as much flavor, but I feel like any type of cheese would go great with eggs! 🙂
I love mixing vegetables with eggs to make them more wholesome and nutritious!! I am wondering, why I have never tried them with spinach?. Goat cheese makes them sound so yummy.. I am trying this soon 🙂
Hey Deepika! I do that too, because it makes eggs more tasty and filling as well! Haha, I always have spinach in my fridge so I use it for salads and cooking all the time! You should definitely try this recipe soon and let me know what you think! 🙂
