What makes this Mexican Breakfast Scramble stand out is its perfect combination of taste and nutrition. With a generous dose of protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, it’s an excellent choice for those looking to maintain their energy levels and stay full for hours.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 can of pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 big handfuls of spinach or kale
- Hot sauce, to taste
- 8 eggs, whisked
- Splash of water (1-2 tsp)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1⁄2 cup feta cheese
- Salsa (optional)
- Sliced avocado (optional)
Directions:
- Start with a Sizzle: In a medium pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil until it shimmers. Once hot, add the pinto beans and cook them until they’re heated through.
- Add a Zesty Twist: Squeeze the juice of one lime over the beans and toss in two generous handfuls of spinach or kale. Stir them in until the greens are just beginning to wilt. For an extra kick, drizzle 1-2 dashes of your favorite hot sauce into the mix.
- Egg-citing Development: While the beans and greens are simmering away, crack open eight eggs into a bowl. Add a small splash of water (about 1-2 tsp), and whisk them until they’re well combined. Season the eggs with a pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper.
- Mix It Up: Once the greens have softened and the beans are heated, pour the whisked eggs into the pan. Stir gently but consistently. As the eggs start to come together, sprinkle a half-cup of feta cheese evenly over the top.
- Finishing Touches: Continue cooking until the eggs are fully set and the cheese has melted into creamy goodness.
- Serve with Style: To elevate your Mexican Breakfast Scramble, consider topping it with a spoonful of your favorite salsa and slices of creamy avocado.
