- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 6 large eggs see note below
- ¼ cup 1% milk
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper

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
