As we continue to focus on healthy low-carb meals for January, I have to share one of my favorite veggie breakfasts! Now, making scrambled eggs are a no-brainer but we often forget that healthy vegetables are awesome with scrambled eggs. My favorite Healthy Veggie Egg Scramble is a perfect combo of veggies and eggs, providing a great amount of protein!v This is also a great way to get added veggies to your meal. As a huge breakfast fan, this is a great combo of veggies! I use a bevy of my favorite veggies, feel free to adjust any veggies to your favorites!
I also call this veggie scramble, my clean-out-the-fridge meal! This egg scramble can use veggies in the fridge that need to be cooked. Those veggies can go into making this Healthy Veggie Egg Scramble. My base vegetables are usually broccoli, mushrooms, and peppers because I love them. Feel free to change up the veggies to your favorites or what is in the fridge.
Tips on making the best Healthy Veggie Egg Scramble:
- Using the whole egg is the norm, as I am looking for a hearty meal with protein and veggies.
- Cut cholesterol by using half egg whites and whole eggs.
- Adjust vegetables to what is in the fridge or your favorites.
- Make a large quantity. Split into 3 containers to reheat during the week for a quick and healthy breakfast.
- When making the scramble, let the eggs settle for a minute. Then push the eggs forward and gently fold them over.
- Once eggs are just about done, transfer to a plate and they continue to cook a bit.

Healthy Veggie Egg Scramble
Equipment
Ingredients
Instructions
- Heat a medium skillet over medium heat spray with butter flavored cooking spray. Add to skillet ½ cup chopped fresh broccoli florets, ½ cup diced fresh mushrooms, ½ cup diced red pepper, and ½ cup diced orange pepper . Saute about 5 minutes, until the veggies begin to soften. Add 1 cup fresh spinach and cook another 2 minutes to wilt the spinach.
- While the veggies are sauteing, in a medium sizd mixing bowl add 6 large eggs , ¼ cup 1% milk , ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt eggs. Whisk to blend the eggs. (The longer the eggs are whisked, the fluffier they are when cooked.)
- Add the egg mixture to the veggies. Let cook about 1 minute until eggs begin to set. Push the eggs towards the center of the pan and gently fold over. Tilt pan slightly to allow the liquids to cook through. Continue to do this until the eggs are just about set. If adding cheese, do so now. Remove from heat and let rest one minute. Serve and enjoy

Hi. 2 questions: How would I adjust the ingredients to feed 15-20? Is it possible to bake this rather than cooking in a pan stove top?
Thanks it looks delicous.
Eileen Murphy Kelly
Hi Sue, if you put your mouse or finger over the number of servings, you can move the numner to the specific number of servings you need. The ingredients will adjust to the appropriate amounts. You will have to slightly adjust the instructions as they are set. For example, it will take slightly longer to cook the eggs.
This particular recipe is an egg scramble so I have not tested it in the oven as a frittata. I can't give you any specifics since I have not tested it. However, now I need to try this as a frittata 🙂 a great idea.
If I were to make it in the oven, I'd start it on the stove and add the eggs and finish in a preheated oven until set. I will work on a recipe but cannot say exactly when I will get that one published. If you have any other questions, please let me know. Enjoy.

Thanks for the recipe. I am always looking for a way to get more veggies in. I think I will take Jason's advice on adding the turmeric as well.
Eileen xo
Awesome! The turmeric will add both antioxidants and great flavor. I would love to hear how the recipe went for you.
Jason Ellis
Lovely recipe and beautiful presentation of the dish! Have you ever thought of adding some turmeric into that egg scramble? Turmeric is a natural anti-inflamatory and works wonders as an antioxidant as well. It has a bit of a kick to it but if you like your eggs spicy like I do, then it only enhances the flavor 🙂
Eileen xo
Jason, turmeric would be a great addition to these egg. I would also make a cup of green tea and add in turmeric to the tea, for extra antioxidants! I am glad you enjoy the recipe!
