Ingredients

Topping

  • 1 clove garlic (chopped)
  • 1 green onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 tsp olive oil

Scramble

To serve

  • 4 slices wholegrain bread (toasted)
  • 2 tbsp low fat cream cheese
  • 1 handful parsley, fresh
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 handful spinach

Optional

  • 1 tbsp ketchup (or fave sauce)

Instructions

Topping

  • Heat olive oil in a medium non-stick pan. Add the thinly sliced green onions and chopped garlic. Cook at medium low heat until onions have reduced and are deep golden brown.
  • Remove onions and garlic from pan and set aside until needed.

Scramble

  • While they're cooking, whisk the eggs, salt, and cream cheese.
  • In the same pan (no need to clean it) add olive oil and the egg mixture. Cook, undisturbed, at medium low heat until a thin layer of cooked egg appears around the edge of the skillet.

  • Using a rubber spatula and broad sweeping motions, push eggs all the way around the circumference of the skillet, then across the bottom. Continue to push eggs around and across the skillet until fluffy and barely set, about 2 minutes; they should still look runny on top.

To serve

  • Toast the bread slices
  • Spread remaining 2 tbsp of cream cheese on the bread slices and then layer on the spinach
  • Serve the fluffy eggs on top of the bread, adding salt and pepper to taste, then the crispy onions and fresh parsley leaves.
