Cook this recipe
- large eggs-6 each
- baby spinach-2 cups
- shredded sharp cheddar cheese-1/2 cup
- whole-grain English muffins-4 each
- tomato-1 each
- fresh chives-2 tablespoons
- milk-2 tablespoons
- unsalted butter-1 tablespoon
- kosher salt-1/4 teaspoon
- black pepper-1/8 teaspoon
Slice the tomato, chop the chives, split the English muffins, and whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper until evenly combined.
Keep the knife blade angled away from fingers while slicing and chopping.
Keep raw eggs away from ready-to-eat ingredients and wash hands after handling them.
Toast the English muffins in the toaster until lightly crisp, then set them cut-side up for easy assembly.
Use a dry towel or mitt when handling hot toasted muffins.
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, add the spinach, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until just wilted.
Keep the skillet handle turned inward to prevent bumps and spills.
Pour in the egg mixture, sprinkle with chives, and cook undisturbed until the edges look mostly set, about 2 minutes.
Cook eggs until fully set with no visible runny areas.
Use the spatula to fold the egg into a compact rectangle, sprinkle cheddar over the top, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the egg is fully set.
Cook the egg until fully set before portioning.
Cut the folded egg into 4 portions, place each portion on a toasted muffin bottom, top with tomato slices, and close with the muffin tops.
Keep fingers clear of the knife while cutting the folded egg into portions.
Serve warm while the muffins are crisp and the cheddar is melty.
