You'll need

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tbsp semi-skimmed milk
  • 10g butter
  • 80g baby spinach
  • 4 slices wholemeal bread

Method

How to make it

  1. Toast

    Toast the bread while you do the eggs.

  2. Wilt

    Put the spinach in a non-stick pan with a splash of water and stir for about a minute until wilted. Tip it out onto a plate.

  3. Scramble

    Whisk the eggs with the milk and a pinch of salt and pepper. Melt the butter in the pan on a low heat, pour in the eggs and stir slowly for 2 to 3 minutes, until set with no runny egg left.

  4. Serve

    Top the toast with the spinach and the scrambled eggs and serve the cherry tomatoes on the side.
