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 eggs forward and gently fold over.
• Once eggs are just about done, transfer to plate and they continue to cook one more minute.

Instructions

1. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat spray the non-stick cooking spray. Add to skillet broccoli, mushrooms, red pepper, and orange pepper. Saute about 5 minutes until the veggies begin are soft. Add spinach and cook another 2 minutes to wilt the spinach.

2. While the veggies are sauteing, in a medium mixing bowl add the eggs, milk, pepper, and salt.  Whisk to completely blend the eggs. The longer the eggs are whisked, the fluffier they are when cooked.

3. 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
