Almost Green Scrambled eggs with Spinach

Bergy's Note:

Breakfast for one or double it. Tastes great with leftover ham. The green of the spinach is a nice contrast. Stir fry some red peppers and mushrooms to have on the side. Wholewheat toast Mmmm.

Did these up for breaky this morning, used the cottage cheese and cut the cheddar by half, they were still delicious!! we love spinach, this looks great served on brown toast, thanks Bergy. another tastey recipe!!

I agree with ms bold--this may be a preference thing. I found the texture of these eggs very strange, almost gummy. I did like the use of spinach and thyme, so will make scrambled eggs the way I usually do with those additions. Different strokes :-)

I loved this recipe!!! I served it for brunch this morning with coffee cake and homemade sausage. Fantastic! Instead of cheddar, I used fontina, and I added a couple of chopped green onions with the spinach. I also used cottage cheese, but I didn't puree it. It still turned out fine. The cottage cheese just blended right in. Thanks for the great recipe. I will make it again.
