Ingredients List

To prepare our hearty, health-giving delight, gather together the following ensemble:

  • 8 large, farm-fresh eggs
  • 1 cup of fresh spinach, finely chopped
  • 1 cup of diced mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup of diced onions
  • 1 teaspoon of olive oil
  • 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, grated
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps to Cook up a Storm

  1. Seize your pan, dab it with olive oil, and heat over a medium flame. As it hums with heat, sprinkle the onions uniformly and let them achieve a delicate golden hue, stirring periodically.

  2. Bring in the mushrooms, a worthy accompaniment to the onions. Cook until they release their water and start to brown. Now, it’s time for the spinach to join the pan-party! Cook until it’s completely wilted.

  3. Whisk the eggs, season with a smidgen of salt, and a pinch of pepper. Pour this egg mixture over the cooked vegetables in the pan.

  4. Turn the heat down and sprinkle the cheese gently over the top. Allow it to cook slowly until the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan.

  5. To finish, cook it in a preheated oven (400°F) for about 10 – 15 minutes or until the eggs are set and the cheese is meltingly delicious.
