3cupsbaby arugula
2tbspcrumbled feta cheese
A few leaves of fresh basil, chopped
Instructions
Whisk eggs with garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Set aside.
Heat up a medium-sized pan on medium heat. Add olive oil, or other oil of choice.
Add halved tomatoes to the pan, stirring around occasionally for about 3 minutes.
Add baby arugula to the pan and stir with tomatoes until leaves begin to wilt, about 2 minutes.
Space cooked tomatoes and arugula evenly throughout the pan. Pour the whisked eggs overtop, ensuring that the entire pan is covered with egg.
Sprinkle crumbled feta overtop of eggs and cover the pan with a lid. Reduce heat and allow to cook. The eggs should puff up and be cooked through when done, about 5 minutes.
Once the eggs are done, remove pan from heat. Sprinkle freshly chopped basil leaves overtop. Feel free to finish with an extra drizzle of olive oil and black pepper.
Slice into servings and enjoy hot!

*RECIPE MODIFICATIONS:
Arugula can be swapped with another leafy green, like spinach, kale (esp. baby kale), etc.
Feta cheese can be swapped with another cheese, like goat or parmesan.
If you want to use fresh garlic (or even onions/shallots) in place of garlic powder, you can mince those and sauté in the oil before adding the veggies.
If you want to throw in another veggie, some sliced mushrooms or bell peppers could replace the tomatoes.
For a dairy-free option, simply use a dairy-free alternative to feta (or omit completely)
