Servings: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp. coconut oil (such as Nutiva)
  • 2 cups mixed fresh mushrooms, sliced (shiitake, white button, portabella, crimini, etc)
  • ½ cup red onion, sliced
  • 2 cups of spinach
  • 12 tsp. fresh herbs of choice or ½-1 tsp. dried (rosemary, sage, dill, thyme, oregano, basil, etc.)
  • ¼ cup of goat cheese or cheese of choice^

Instructions

  1. Preheat broiler to high (550 degrees).
  2. Whisk eggs in a medium bowl; add salt and pepper and set aside.

  4. Saute mushrooms and onions for 3-4 minutes.
  5. Add spinach and herbs and continue to saute for 30-60 seconds or until spinach begins to wilt.
  6. Top vegetables with goat cheese and eggs.
  7. Cook for 4-5 minutes on medium heat or until the edges begin to set.
  8. Finally, place the skillet under the broiler and broil for another 3-4 minutes or until center is just about set. Watch carefully so that you do not overcook or burn the eggs which can easily happen during the broiling process.
  9. Remove from oven, let set for 5 minutes and enjoy.

Notes

^omit cheese for dairy-free.
**No cast iron or oven safe skillet? No sweat. Transfer to 9×9 dish after step 6 and bake in over at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until center is set.
