Ingredients
Scale
Cooking spray or 2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 white onion – diced
5 oz fresh spinach
6 large eggs
4 egg whites
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
6 English muffins – sourdough or whole wheat
6 cheddar cheese slices
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add cooking spray or olive oil. Sauté the diced onion for about 3-4 minutes until translucent and soft.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted. Once done, set the mixture aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, kosher salt, black pepper, and milk until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture into a lightly greased baking dish. Gently fold in the sautéed veggies and shredded cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set. Let it cool before slicing.
Toast the English muffins. Layer each muffin half with the baked egg squares, cheddar cheese slices, and sliced cherry tomatoes. Top with the other half of the muffin and serve warm.
Notes
Customize with different cheeses or add cooked bacon for extra protein.
