MEDITERRANEAN EGGS
Eggs are always a great way to start the morning! But these are not your typical scrambled eggs. If you know me, you know I love just about everything Greek! Even if you aren’t the biggest fan of Greek food, you will love these. These eggs have strong flavors, are loaded with perfectly cooked veggies, and are high in protein.
INGREDIENTS
4 eggs
1/2 cup egg whites
1/4 cup red onion, chopped
1/4 cup red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup spinach, chopped
2 tbsp feta cheese
1 tbsp parsley, chopped
3 cherry tomatoes, halved (chopped tomatoes works too)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 Arnold Whole Wheat Pita Pocket, cut in 1/2
May also serve plain or with salsa.
INSTRUCTIONS
Start by chopping the vegetables - red onion and red bell pepper. Once chopped, spray a medium size skillet with cooking spray and add the vegetables. Saute onions and pepper until onions are almost translucent and the peppers are getting softer.
Then, add the eggs and egg whites, stirring continually. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
When the eggs are almost fully cooked, add chopped spinach, feta cheese, and parsley. Take off heat and top with tomatoes.
Serve plain, with salsa, or inside pita bread. Enjoy!
