Author’s Opinion
This recipe changed my morning routine completely. I used to grab sugary cereals or skip breakfast entirely. Now I whip up these green eggs in minutes.
The combination of creamy eggs with slightly wilted greens creates the perfect texture balance. The spinach adds mild earthiness while kale brings a subtle peppery bite.
I love how this dish makes me feel energized without feeling heavy. It’s become my go-to when I want something nutritious but don’t have much time.
