Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Butter
  • ¼ sweet onion like Vidalia, chopped
  • 1 Roma tomato chopped
  • Handful of fresh spinach
  • 2 eggs
  • Shredded cheese mozzarella, cheddar, or feta
  • Salt
  • Everything bagel seasoning
  • 1 bagel or English muffin toasted

Equipment

  • nonstick skillet
  • Spatula
  • sharp knife
  • toaster

Method
 

  1. In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt a little butter.
  2. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato and spinach, and sauté until the spinach wilts.
  3. Stir in the tomato and spinach, and sauté until the spinach wilts.
  4. Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and stir gently with a spatula to scramble and combine with the veggies. Cook until the eggs are just set.
  5. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the eggs. Let it melt slightly, then fold the eggs over the cheese.
  6. Season with a pinch of salt and a shake of everything bagel seasoning.
  7. Toast your bagel or English muffin. Pile the egg scramble onto the bottom half, top with the other half, and enjoy warm!

Notes

  • Use low heat when scrambling the eggs to keep them soft and fluffy. High heat can make them rubbery.
  • Add the cheese just before turning off the heat — this helps it melt without overcooking the eggs.
  • You can prep the sautéed veggie mix ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for quick breakfasts during the week.
  • Toast the bagel right before assembling for the best texture — it adds crunch and prevents sogginess.
  • This sandwich is easy to customize: add chopped herbs, swap in different veggies, or add protein like bacon or sausage.
