Turmeric Ginger Scramble & Greens
The gentlest way to hit 30g of protein before 8am. Three eggs whisked with fresh ginger, turmeric, and cracked black pepper (which unlocks turmeric's curcumin) — piled onto wilted spinach with a dollop of tangy Greek yogurt. Anti-inflammatory triple threat in one skillet.
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp freshly grated ginger (or ¼ tsp ground)
- ¼ tsp freshly cracked black pepper (activates curcumin)
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 tsp olive or avocado oil
- 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (topping)
- 1 tbsp fresh dill or cilantro
- Pinch sea salt
Directions
- Whisk eggs in a bowl with turmeric, ginger, black pepper, and salt.
- Heat olive oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low.
- Add spinach and toss 45 seconds until just wilted. Push to one side.
- Pour eggs into the empty side. Stir gently with a spatula, folding softly, 90 seconds — the goal is soft custardy curds, not dry.
- Slide everything onto a plate.
- Top with Greek yogurt, fresh dill/cilantro, and an extra crack of pepper.
