Eggs feature very regularly on my breakfast menu, especially when I am following a low carb or keto plan as they are perfect for my macro requirements.

They are easy to make and I usually include them when I make breakfast bowls along with avocado, sweet potato, bacon (or salmon) and tomatoes.

I have been adding turmeric powder to my scrambled eggs for some time now to get some extra health benefits.

Turmeric is a spice which is typically grown in Asia and Central America and it has so many health benefits.

Turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties, promotes healthy digestion and it is an anti-oxidant.

You can use it flavour soups (like my red lentil and quinoa soup) and to flavour warm drinks, like my turmeric hot chocolate and turmeric latte.

  • Author: Vanessa Vickery
  • Yield: 1 to 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1.5 cups raw baby spinach
  • 1 tablespoon grass-fed butter or ghee
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the eggs and turmeric in a bowl.
  2. Melt butter in a medium sized non-stick frypan over moderate heat.
  3. Add the spinach and mix through the butter until the spinach has wilted.
  4. Add the turmeric eggs mixture. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, move the eggs to the center of the pan. Keep doing that every 30 seconds or so until the eggs are cooked. It should only take 2-3 minutes for them to cook to a beautiful soft consistency.
  5. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Serve either on it’s own or make up a breakfast bowl using other elements like avocado, baby tomato, sweet potato, mushrooms, bacon or salmon.

Notes

You can also use 1 tablespoon of coconut oil instead of the butter to make it dairy free
