Green Eggs (Baby Friendly Recipe | BLW Friendly)

Ingredients

3 eggs
1 cup baby spinach
¼ cup milk

Method

Add the spinach and milk to a blender and blend until smooth.
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease if needed.
Crack the eggs into the spinach mixture and whisk well to combine.
Pour the mixture into the pan.
Gently scramble with a spatula as it cooks until soft and fully cooked through.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Storage Instructions

Best served fresh. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but texture is best when freshly made.

Nutrition Notes

Eggs provide high-quality protein, healthy fats and important nutrients like choline, which supports brain development. Spinach adds fibre, iron and a range of vitamins, making this a nutrient-dense option for babies and toddlers.
