  • 1 cup spinach, roughly chopped (or arugula)

Instructions

  1. 1

  4. 4

    Add spinach and stir for 30 seconds until wilted, then pour egg mixture over it evenly.

    Cook without stirring until edges are set and center still jiggles slightly, 3–4 minutes.

    Scatter cheese and herbs on top, then broil 2–3 minutes until golden and center is just set.
