Today I’m going to show you how to make green scrambled eggs – in other words – eggs with a bunch of greens blended into them.
If you don’t mind eating some bright green eggs (they honestly look like you’ve dumped a bottle of green food colouring on them), it’s an excellent way to get more leafy green vegetables into your diet without really noticing them.
You can make them savoury or sweet… I got the original idea from a wicked cool reader named Carli who was making them savoury style, but I decided to adapt them a little and add avocado to change the texture and half a banana or some apple to give it a sweet flavour.
Watch my video for the demo:

Recipe:
2 – 3 eggs
1/2 an avocado
1 cup greens (kale or spinach would probably work best)
1/2 – 1 banana or apple
Blend in the blender, and cook em up like scrambled eggs!

This is *such* a cool idea Tracy! Can’t wait to try it 😀 this is an awesome way of combining protein and veggies/ fruit… would make the perfect lunch. Thank you! 😀 xx
Does it taste like eggs?
I’m not a egg eater. I’m not a fan of the taste/texture. Will it mask the flavor with the greens?
The texture is the same…. but yeah the banana and greens definitely give it a different flavour
i will definitely try this! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I am so excited to try this!! I have been looking for new ways to get all the greens in; besides smoothies or salads.
This is an interesting way to get your greens in. What do you think about vibrant health’s field of greens veggie drinks? I think it tastes gross. haha
So I’ll have to try this sometime as well! I need to get my leafy greens in where ever I can. 🙂
And I think your hair looks really cute Tracy. Don’t worry about what other people may think. What they think are not facts, just opinions. You already knew that though. 😉
Love,

Hi Tracy,
Sorry, this has nothing to do with eggs (although your recipe looks very yummy, and I’m definitely going to try it!). Anyway, I just wanted to ask you if you had ever heard of quercetin and bromelain in relation to acne? I was trying to find a herbal remedy for my seasonal allergies, online (on iherbs.com, which I highly recommend btw), and I came across a supplement containing quercetin, which is a natural biflavonoid that helps to support healthy histamine levels, and bromelain, which is an enzyme derived from pineapple stems, known to support a healthy immune system. Basically, the two together are highly anti-inflammatory, and anti-histaminic, and can help lower blood sugar levels. Some of the people who reviewed the supplement said it helped them to clear their acne dramatically (up to 80% for some), others said it totally cleared their food and seasonal allergies… so voilà, just thought I’d mention what I read as it might really help some people in their fight against acne.
Also, on a personal note – I posted a comment a couple of months ago about weaning off the birth control pill. Just a brief update; I’m 2 months into the weaning process + no gluten, soy, & dairy and LOTS of leafy green smoothies, and so far no sign of a pimple (although I’m going to remain very humble about that as I have no idea what the next few months will be like) 🙂

ps – love the haircut btw!
Hey Christelle – no I’ve never heard of anything about those things specifically relating to acne – very interesting! I will have to check it out. Also that’s really awesome that you’re doing so well with your skin! I hope it continues like that 🙂
Very very interesting and AWESOME idea! I most definitely need to try something like this. Simply amazing Tracy.
I know, it’s such a good idea!
Hey Tracy! I loved this recepie you gave so much!!! I cook it at least once a week now!! I try to have on the days I work a lot and it helps keeps me going all day! And, it tastes sooooo good!!! Please make more videos like that:)
This recipe IS pretty awesome… your comment here inspired me to make it again today, but today I used berries and half an apple instead of a banana… yum
It did? That’s awesome Tracy! I’m glad I was a good reminder for you today:) My whole family loves this recepie actually!!! I make it for them too:) it brings joy to the whole house!:) lol!! Thank you again for sharing with us Tracy!!!
Hi Tracy,
do you take the big pip out of the avocado before you blend, and do you have to remove the skin?
thanks 🙂
yep, I would definitely recommend both! 😀
