What You’ll Need to Make Mushroom Spinach Scrambled Eggs

When it comes to breakfast, simplicity is key, right? Here’s what you’ll need for this fabulous dish:

4 large eggs : Fresh is best, but any eggs will do!
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped : Yeah, it looks like a lot, but this shrinks down!
1 cup mushrooms, sliced : Use any type you like cremini, button, whatever’s available!
1 tablespoon olive oil or butter : Can’t go wrong with either; I prefer butter for extra flavor.
Salt and pepper to taste : A couple pinches will do!

Feel free to swap in or out ingredients based on what you have or what your family loves. Got some tomatoes? Feta? Throw them in!

Let’s Get Cooking!

Okay, friends, here’s how to make this super simple and delicious mushroom spinach scrambled eggs. Trust me; it’s easier than you’d think!

Heat the Oil: In a skillet over medium heat, warm up the olive oil or butter. You want it nice and hot but not smoking, about 1-2 minutes will do.
Sauté the Mushrooms: Toss in your sliced mushrooms and sauté them until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. They should smell amazing, almost nutty when they’re perfectly cooked.
Add the Spinach: Next up, add the chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook it down until wilted, which should only take about 1-2 minutes. Keep things moving in the pan so it doesn’t stick!
Whisk the Eggs: While your veggies are cooking, in a bowl, whisk together the eggs with a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Just enough to give it that yum factor!
Pour and Scramble: Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet over the veggie mix. Let it sit for about 30 seconds before you start stirring gently. Scramble until the eggs are cooked to your liking, about 3-4 minutes for soft and fluffy eggs, longer if you prefer well-cooked.
Serve Warm: And voilà! Serve your scrambles warm, maybe with a slice of toast or on top of a bed of greens for a little more veggie goodness.

This whole process is so quick! You’ll have breakfast on the table, and perhaps some extra time for a morning coffee, before you know it.

For something a little extra, I love serving my mushroom spinach scrambled eggs on warm toast with a sprinkling of feta or avocado on top. You could also pair it with crispy bacon or a refreshing fruit salad to balance out the richness of the eggs.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Storage: Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days in an airtight container.
Reheating: The best way to reheat these is in a skillet over low heat, just until warmed through. You could also pop them in the microwave for about 30 seconds, but we all know it might not be as good…

Freezer Friendly

You can freeze any leftovers for up to a month. Just portion them into freezer-safe bags or containers. When you’re ready to eat, let it thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat as directed above.
