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

  1. Add cooking spray or olive oil to a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion for about 3-4 minutes until it’s translucent and soft.
  2. Toss in the fresh spinach and cook until it wilts. Set it aside.
  3. Whisk together the eggs, egg whites, kosher salt, black pepper, and milk in a large bowl until well combined.
  4. 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 cool before slicing.
  5. 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

For spice, consider adding diced bell peppers or chopped jalapeños to the sautéed veggies. Experiment with different cheese types for variety.
