Green Eggs & Cheese

1. 1

   Add 1-2 teaspoons (depending on how much your frying pan sticks) of extra virgin coconut oil to a frying pan. Turn heat to medium low.

2. 2

   Once the oil is melted, turn heat to low.

3. 3

   In your blender/food processor, add 8 eggs (or just 8 egg whites if you prefer) and 1 cup (or a handful or two) of kale or spinach (or any dark leafy greens you have on hand). Blend/Food Process for 30 seconds or so until the kale is ground up. You don't want chunks of greens, especially for a picky toddler, so blend until the kale is well ground up.

4. 4

   Add the mixture to the frying pan. Let sit for a few minutes, with heat on low.

5. 5

   Once you start to see the egg mixture cooking, use a fork to stir the egg mixture every minute or so, creating a scramble. Be patient! At first you may think you added too much kale, but the greens seem to add cooking time to the eggs.

6. 6

   Once the eggs scramble, but before they are entirely cooked, add the cheese. A handful of cheese is fine. I usually use a local brand of shredded Sharp White Cheddar. You can also omit the cheese entirely for a dairy-free option, and substitute a pinch of sea salt instead.

7. 7

   Stir gently and continuously until the cheese is melted and loosely blended in the eggs.

8. 8

   Remove from the pan and serve.
