Spinach Scrambled Eggs: The Perfect Breakfast

I love having eggs in the morning and eat them almost every single day. They are nutritious and an excellent source of protein, so they 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 Scrambled Eggs with Spinach 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.

How to Make Scrambled Eggs with Spinach

To make homemade spinach scrambled eggs, simply:

  1. Prepare the eggs: Whisk together the eggs, milk, and a little S&P in a small bowl.
  2. Cook the spinach: Heat some olive oil in a pan, then add garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Add the spinach and saute until wilted.
  3. Scramble the eggs: Add the egg mixture and cook, scrambling constantly, until the eggs are set.
  4. Top with cheese: Take the pan off the heat and add the goat cheese. Serve warm.

Since this scrambled eggs recipe only takes 10 minutes to make, it is 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!!

      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! 🙂
