Equipment

  • Microwave
  • Non-stick skillet
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 package instant brown rice
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • Handful of spinach
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Microwave rice packet per instructions on bag, which is generally 90 seconds on high heat.
  • Pour avocado oil in frying pan and warm pan on medium-low heat.
  • While rice is cooking and pan is warming, whisk together eggs in a mixing bowl until fluffy and pale yellow. Pour eggs into the frying pan and cook on medium-low heat until bottom side is cooked. Use a spatula to flip to the other side, gently scrambling together to make big chunks.
  • Fold in spinach and cook about another 2 minutes until wilted and bright green. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Assemble rice bowl by pouring rice, eggs, and spinach together. Add any additional spices as wanted. Enjoy!

Notes

  • While my rice is cooking in the microwave, I start the scrambled eggs and spinach to make the most efficient use of my time. 
  • You will know your spinach is done cooking when it is completely wilted and bright green. It takes about 2-3 minutes for this process, so I like to add it when my eggs are halfway cooked.
  • This brown rice and egg breakfast bowl can be made in a large batch so you can meal prep for the week. Simply store in an air-tight glass container for up to 3 days.
