Instructions

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Add butter or olive oil, then add the sliced mushrooms.

Cook for about 3–4 minutes until they are golden brown and slightly softened.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the spinach and sauté for another minute until wilted.

Lower the heat to medium-low.

In a bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper.

Pour the eggs into the pan, stirring gently with a spatula.

Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally until the eggs are just set.

If using cheese, sprinkle it over the eggs and stir until melted.

Remove from heat while the eggs are still slightly soft, as they will continue cooking from residual heat.

Serve immediately and enjoy.
