Toasting the English muffins whole instead of splitting them first keeps them warm and moist inside- a neat trick. This breakfast dish gives you one whole serving of vegetables, a good start to the day.

Instructions

  1. Split each pepper into two pieces. Set aside.
  2. Place whole muffins in toaster. Toast 2 to 3 minutes or until golden. Leave in toaster to hold warm.
  3. In bowl and using fork, whisk eggs with milk. Set aside.
  4. Spray nonstick frying pan with PC Blue Menu Canola Oil Cooking Spray. Heat over medium heat. Add spinach and 1 tbsp (15 mL) water; cook, stirring, until spinach is wilted, about 1 minute. Transfer spinach to bowl. Wipe out frying pan with paper towel. Spray again. Return to medium heat. Pour in egg mixture; cook, stirring, until soft curds form, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat.
  5. Split muffins. Place one muffin half on each of four plates. Top each muffin half with 1 tbsp (15 mL) salsa, one-quarter of the spinach, one piece of red pepper and 2 heaping tbsp (25 mL) scrambled egg. Finish with a couple of grinds of Cajun grinder over each serving. Serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

Substitute a spicier salsa, if you prefer.
